ABSTRACT

We report the observation of a 45-year-old female patient with no specific pathological history in whom the clinical examination found a 50x60 mm nodule. Breast ultrasound showed an adenofibroma without microcalcifications. The CA15-3 assay was positive at 46.8 U/ml. The Anapath test was in favor of a medullary carcinoma of the breast confirmed histologically and the patient was treated conservatively. This is a rare clinical form of breast cancer with a favorable evolution despite poor prognostic factors. The therapeutic indications are identical to those of other infiltrating carcinomas with, however, a greater indication for chemotherapy due to the frequency of triple-negative tumors.
