The expression of hormone receptors (estrogen and progesterone) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) has been used for both therapeutic and prognostic purposes in the management of breast cancer. The presence of a discordant receptor status complicates the approach to treatment in patients with synchronous bilateral breast cancer. We describe the case of a 45-year-old female with synchronous bilateral breast cancer with a triple-negative tumor and a contralateral HER2-positive tumor and discussed the impact of this on the approach to therapeutic management.
激素受体(雌激素和孕激素)以及人表皮生长因子受体2(HER2)的表达已用于乳腺癌治疗和预后评估。受体状态不一致使同步双侧乳腺癌患者的治疗方法变得复杂。我们描述了一例45岁同步双侧乳腺癌女性病例,一侧为三阴性肿瘤,对侧为HER2阳性肿瘤,并讨论了这对治疗管理方法的影响。
