Metastatic Signet-Ring Cell Gastric Carcinoma Masquerading as Breast Primary
Metastasis to the breast from an extra-mammary primary is a rare phenomenon; metastasis from gastric carcinoma to the breast is extremely so. We report a case who initially presented as mucin-secreting and signet-ring cell tumor of the ovary, and after an interval of 8 months with breast and chest wall metastatic nodules. The covert gastric primary eluded the oncologists at both presentations.
متن کاملBreast Metastatic Localization of Signet-Ring Cell Gastric Carcinoma
Metastatic tumors in the breast are quite rare and constitute 0,5 to 6% of all breast malignancies. They often occur in a polymetastatic context. Gastrointestinal lesions rarely metastasize to the breast. The first case of a metastasis deposit to the breast and ovary from gastric signet-ring cell carcinoma was reported in the literature in 1999. Since this report, only 5 cases have been reporte...
متن کاملGastric metastasis of mammary signet ring cell carcinoma--a differential diagnosis with primary gastric signet ring cell carcinoma.
Metastasis of breast carcinoma to the stomach is relatively uncommon, although metastasis to other organs such as lung, bone, and lymph nodes is not rare. It may cause difficulty in differentiating from primary gastric carcinoma. We report a case of signet ring cell carcinoma of the breast with metastasis to the stomach with illustrations of histologic findings of both lesions. The results of i...
متن کاملBreast metastases of gastric signet ring cell carcinoma: a differential diagnosis with primary breast signet ring cell carcinoma.
Metastatic deposits within the breast may be difficult to distinguish from primary breast carcinoma. Radiological features and immunohistochemistry especially for steroid hormone receptors and expression of gross cystic disease fluid protein may be helpful in differentiating these two conditions. In this report, we present a case of signet ring cell stomach cancer with metastasis to the breast ...
متن کاملPrimary signet ring cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix.
Primary signet ring cell carcinoma of the cervix is extremely rare. A 47-year-old woman visited for postcoital vaginal bleeding during the last six months. Gynecologic examination revealed mild cervical erosion and touch bleeding. Colposcopic punch biopsy revealed a signet ring cell type of mucinous adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent radical hysterectomy with bilateral salpingooophorectomy, ...
