Increased Malignant Microcalcifications after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Advanced Breast Cancer

In patients with advanced breast cancer, most new calcifications detected on a mammogram after neoadjuvant chemotherapy are benign dystrophic calcifications, but this is not always observed. We present a patient with advanced breast cancer who had paradoxically increased malignant microcalcifications concomitant with primary tumor regression after undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Combination chemotherapy ("CHOP-Bleo") in advanced (non-Hodgkin) malignant lymphoma.
