background: cylindroma of the breast is a rarely described tumor that closely resembles its dermal counterpart. case presentation: we report a case of a 55-year-old woman with an incidental finding of a left breast mass on screening mammography. on histologic examination, the tumor was found to be consistent with cylindroma of the breast. conclusion: generally considered to be a benign lesion, ...

bilateral synchronous male breast cancer is very rare. a 63-year-old male presented with rapidly progressive enlarging bilateral breast masses without ulceration and bloody nipple discharge. synchronous bilateral breast cancer was diagnosed by fine needle aspiration cytology. pathology study revealed grade 2 invasive ductal carcinoma in both breasts. he underwent a bilateral modified radical ma...

the male breast cancer (mbc) is a very rare neoplasm which accounts for 0.5-1% of the total cases of breast cancer. bilateral involvement is reported to occur in fewer than 2% of all the diagnosed cases of mbc, and synchronous tumors are very rare. because of its rarity, little is known about mbc etiology, its clinical findings and treatment. most patients present with a painless breast mass. t...

background: contralateral axillary metastasis (cam) is a rare entity in patients with breast cancer which can occur during the primary breast cancer or its follow-up. different treatment modalities include surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, but there is no agreement on them. in our review, we found 12 series with available data, 82 patients with synchronous or metachronous contralateral a...

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. Contralateral breast carcinoma is the most common second malignancy in patients with breast carcinoma. Bilateral breast carcinomas exist in 2 forms: synchronous, in which both tumors occur at the same time, or metachronous, in which they occur at different times. When breast cancer is diagnosed, the contralateral breast should be careful...

Dual malignancy was first reported by Billroth in 1889. Incidence of second malignancy in cancer patients is as high as 10%, but synchronous anaplastic thyroid cancer along with breast tumor is a rare entity. We present a case of a 61-year-old female with a synchronous anaplastic carcinoma thyroid with ductal carcinoma breast. The plausible association of breast cancers with thyroid carcinomas ...

Incidence of double malignancy (synchronous or metachronous) has increased significantly. Renal cell cancer or Breast Cancer as second primaries are reported in the literature, but synchronous carcinoma breast with renal cell carcinoma is extremely rare. We are reporting a case of carcinoma breast with synchronous renal cell carcinoma. Case Report: A 38-yearold female was investigated for a lum...

A case of synchronous metastasis of breast cancer to the stomach and colon is reported. A 38-year-old woman with a history of bilateral breast cancer was admitted for endoscopic examination because of occult blood. Endoscopic examination showed elevated lesions on the mucosal surface of the stomach and cecum. Histopathological examination of the biopsy specimens obtained from both sites showed ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the positive predictive value (PPV) of bilateral whole-breast ultrasonography (BWBU) for detection of synchronous breast lesions on initial diagnosis of breast cancer and evaluate factors affecting the PPV of BWBU according to varying clinicoimaging factors. METHODS A total of 75 patients who had synchronous lesions with pathologic confirmation at the initial diagnosis of ...

The current report presents the case of a 41-year-old female exhibiting synchronous primary cancers of the thyroid and breast. Pathological examination of a tissue sample following biopsy identified papillary carcinoma of the thyroid and invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast to provide a definitive diagnosis of synchronous primary tumors. The patient underwent a modified radical mastectomy an...
