Metastases of lobular breast cancer are commonly encountered at the level of lungs, bones, brain and liver, whereas lesions in the gastrointestinal tract are rarely seen.
A case of a patient with metastases in the right colon and gallbladder originating from an invasive lobular carcinoma is described.
Adequate diagnostic procedures should be performed in patients with a history of breast cancer and who show gastrointestinal symptoms to rule out the potential presence of gastrointestinal metastases.
乳腺小叶癌的转移通常发生在肺部、骨骼、大脑和肝脏,而胃肠道的病变则很少见。
本文描述了一例由浸润性小叶癌转移至右半结肠和胆囊的患者。
对于有乳腺癌病史且出现胃肠道症状的患者,应进行充分的诊断程序,以排除胃肠道转移的可能性。
