This paper documents the utility of ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy in the diagnosis and subsequent management of a case of occult breast carcinoma presenting with multiple distant metastases in the absence of a primary breast lesion. She was initially diagnosed as primary ovarian malignancy with metastatic disease and subsequently underwent transvaginal ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy of the right ovarian mass. Histologic and immunohistochemical studies were consistent with a metastatic adenocarcinoma of breast origin. The patient underwent chemotherapy for primary breast carcinoma and has responded well.
本文记录了超声引导下切割活检在诊断及后续处理一例隐匿性乳腺癌病例中的应用,该病例表现为多处远处转移且无原发性乳腺病灶。患者最初被诊断为原发性卵巢恶性肿瘤伴转移疾病,随后接受了经阴道超声引导下对右侧卵巢肿块的切割活检。组织学和免疫组化研究结果与乳腺来源的转移性腺癌相符。该患者接受了原发性乳腺癌化疗,且反应良好。
