Platinum-Based Chemotherapy Secures Effective Local Control for Very Advanced Hereditary Triple-Negative Breast Cancer with Life-Threatening Bleeding
Curēus(2017)
摘要
Here we report the case of a noncompliant 50-year-old female patient with high-grade, triplenegative breast cancer (TNBC) and strong family cancer history. She only agreed to start treatment after being admitted to the hospital with advanced stage disease and severe anaemia resulting from bulky, ulcerated, and actively bleeding tumor. Therapy was promptly started with platinum-based chemotherapy, resulting in extremely rapid clinical remission and complete control of local symptoms. In conclusion, we hypothesise that even a single course of platinum-based chemotherapy could bring under control life-threatening complications in hereditary TNBC and, therefore, it should be administered without hesitation in emergency circumstances if the patient can tolerate one dose of the medication.
