An extremely rare form of breast cancer, breast carcinosarcoma accounts for less than a percent of all breast malignancies and is highly aggressive. Composed of both cancerous epithelial and mesenchymal cell types, breast carcinosarcoma is associated with a poor prognosis compared to more common breast cancers, and typically lack the receptors typical of other breast carcinomas, which minimize potential targets for treatment. In this case report, we discuss a 56-year-old patient affected by carcinosarcoma of the breast at a T2N1 stage, and the decision-making process that factored into her treatment plan.
乳腺肉瘤样癌是一种极其罕见的乳腺癌形式，占所有乳腺恶性肿瘤的比例不到1%，且具有高度侵袭性。乳腺肉瘤样癌由癌性上皮细胞和间充质细胞类型组成，与更常见的乳腺癌相比，其预后较差，并且通常缺乏其他乳腺癌典型的受体，这使得潜在的治疗靶点减少。在本病例报告中，我们讨论了一名56岁处于T2N1期的乳腺肉瘤样癌患者，以及其治疗方案制定过程中的决策过程。
