[…] x 1.5 More information Case Scenario 1: Breast Case Scenario 1: Breast A 63 year old white female presents with a large mass in her left breast. 4/15/13 Mammogram/US: 1. [healthdocbox.com]
The patient age at presentation ranged from 33 to 78 years (mean 52.5 years). The tumour size ranged from 5 to 70 mm (mean 27 mm). [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
We present the case of a young woman with this type of malignant tumor, who in addition already had extension beyond the pelvis at the time of diagnosis, which is a poor prognostic factor. Case report. [medichub.ro]
Metastases were present at the moment of diagnosis in 8 patients. Tumor grading showed 8 cases of G1, 111 cases of G2, 109 cases of G3, 6 cases of G4 and 24 cases were tumor grading that could not be assessed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In some patients who present with a palpable mass, ill-defined or subtle hypoechoic lesions with posterior acoustic shadowing and diminished elasticity can be seen (, ,, Fig 7 ). [pubs.rsna.org]

Treatment
Better results regarding survival are observed in patients who receive adjuvant treatment compared to cystectomy alone (17.2 months vs 6 months). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
While some authors advise against conservative treatment, in the few series that have been reported, usually of patients classified retrospectively, there is a lack of consensus on appropriate surgical treatment. [elsevier.es]
Afterwards, she was submitted for oncologic treatment. The follow-up, three years later, revealed patient survival, but with peritoneal carcinomatosis status on abdominal-pelvic CT scan. Discussions. [medichub.ro]

DCIS represents a broad biologic spectrum of disease and has become increasingly important due to both a dramatic rise in the detection rate and ongoing controversy surrounding its clinical significance and optimal treatment (, 4,, 5 ). [pubs.rsna.org]
Prognosis
Conclusion : Lymphotropism and an unfavourable prognosis are the hallmarks of this distinct entity. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
Because this phenotype implies a poor prognosis, early recognition of this type of tumor is important. [elsevier.es]
[…] represented by surgery and chemotherapy, and although most of them initially respond to chemotherapy, the response is not durable, compared with low-grade serous carcinomas, which are less likely to respond to chemotherapy, but have a more favorable prognosis [medichub.ro]
