While breast cancer is a common disease with many available treatment options, many patients still have limited responses, especially those with metastatic breast cancer. Surgery of the primary tumor or metastatic sites is often not part of the treatment regimen for patients with metastatic breast cancer. Cryoablation is a relatively non-invasive procedure that is being investigated for patients with breast cancer. Patients with metastatic breast cancer who are not surgical candidates may derive benefit from cryoablation through the abscopal effect. In this case report, we present a patient with stage IV breast cancer who was treated with cryoablation of the primary breast tumor and showed evidence of an abscopal effect in regional and distant metastases.
虽然乳腺癌是一种常见疾病，有许多治疗选择，但许多患者的反应仍然有限，尤其是转移性乳腺癌患者。手术切除原发肿瘤或转移部位通常不是转移性乳腺癌患者治疗方案的一部分。冷冻消融术是一种相对非侵入性的治疗方法，正在对乳腺癌患者进行研究。不适合手术的转移性乳腺癌患者可能通过远隔效应从冷冻消融中获益。在本病例报告中，我们介绍了一名患有 IV 期乳腺癌的患者，该患者接受了原发乳腺肿瘤的冷冻消融治疗，并在局部和远处转移灶中显示出远隔效应的证据。
