Collision tumors are rare neoplasms that consist of at least two different cell lineages at the same site. Given the many possible combinations that can occur, collision tumors, while rare, have been reported in multiple locations such as the stomach, bladder, and thyroid. Collision tumors are rarely found in breast tissue, with only a few cases reported in the literature. We herein report a unique case of a 79-year-old woman with a history of melanoma who presented with a left breast mass that was subsequently found to have invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and metastatic melanoma in the breast tissue. This is one of the first reported combinations of these two malignancies.
碰撞瘤是一种罕见的肿瘤,在同一部位至少由两种不同的细胞谱系组成。鉴于可能出现的多种组合,碰撞瘤虽然罕见,但已在多个部位被报道,如胃、膀胱和甲状腺。碰撞瘤在乳腺组织中很少见,文献中仅报道了少数病例。我们在此报告一例独特病例,一名79岁有黑色素瘤病史的女性,出现左乳肿块,随后在乳腺组织中发现浸润性导管癌(IDC)和转移性黑色素瘤。这是首次报道的这两种恶性肿瘤的组合之一。
