BRCA mutations and the risk of angiosarcoma after breast cancer treatment.

Abstract:

:Post-breast cancer treatment-related angiosarcomas were first observed in lymphedematous extremities after mastectomy and are now being reported with increasing frequency after lumpectomy and radiation. A case history is presented of a BRCA2 carrier who had a postmastectomy chest wall angiosarcoma but had neither therapeutic radiation nor clinically evident lymphedema. The absence of established risk factors led to speculation that the BRCA2 germline mutation could be a causative factor in the development of this patient's angiosarcoma. A literature review supported this concept.

  • Conservative Management of Positive Axilla After Neoadjuvant Systemic Therapy-The Need for, and Review of, Techniques Used for Lymph Node Localization.

    abstract::Involvement of axillary lymph nodes is an important prognostic factor in relationship to the management of breast cancer. However, the use of neoadjuvant systemic therapy is widespread in the treatment of positive axilla and such treatment leads to downstaging of axillary disease. Hence, the role of targeted axillary ...
