Abstract:

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast is a rare and specific type of breast cancer. Simultaneous primary adenoid cystic carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma of the unilateral breast are even rarer. We report a case of mammary associated cases in a 66-year-old woman. Pathological findings adenoid cystic carcinoma at 4 points in left breast. Thisis grade 3 infiltrating ductal carcinoma which is the molecular subtype basal-like in the left breast at 2 points. No cancer tissue was found at each incisal margin during intraoperative examination. The patient underwent breast conserving surgery on the left side and received postoperative chemotherapy. After 18 months of follow-up visits, there was no evidence of recurrence or new progress. By reviewing related disease literature, summarizing clinicopathological features, combining with characteristic morphological, immunophenotype and molecular genetic characteristics, identification of lesions similar to histomorphology and exploring experience in diagnosis and treatment.
