BACKGROUND
Metastases to the breast from extramammary primary tumors are uncommon. Malignant melanoma is one of the most common neoplasms to secondarily involve the mammary parenchyma.
METHODS
Seven cases of malignant melanoma metastatic to the breast diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy are presented.
RESULTS
The cytologic findings of malignant melanoma metastatic to the breast usually are straightforward on aspiration cytology. However, knowledge of a prior history of melanoma is crucial to make an accurate diagnosis.
CONCLUSIONS
Malignant melanoma metastatic to the breast can be diagnosed reliably by fine-needle aspiration cytology, thus avoiding radical and unnecessary surgery.
背景
乳腺外原发性肿瘤转移至乳腺并不常见。恶性黑色素瘤是最常继发累及乳腺实质的肿瘤之一。
方法
本文报告7例经细针穿刺活检诊断为乳腺转移恶性黑色素瘤的病例。
结果
乳腺转移恶性黑色素瘤的细胞学表现通常在细针穿刺细胞学检查中较为直观。然而，了解黑色素瘤的既往病史对于准确诊断至关重要。
结论
细针穿刺细胞学检查可可靠诊断乳腺转移恶性黑色素瘤，从而避免进行根治性且不必要的手术。
