Abstract Breast metastases from an extra-mammary malignancy are rare. Among the lung malignancies that metastasise in the breasts, previous literature has described approximately 30 cases of NSCLC and only a few cases of SCLC. Here, we present a 54-year-old woman with metachronous breast metastasis from pulmonary small cell carcinoma. She presented with a soft tissue mass in the right lung hilum. After bronchoscopy with biopsy, SCLC was verified. Th e patient was given 4 cycles of etoposide and cisplatin followed by radiation therapy.

The metastasis of extra-mammary malignancy to breast is extremely rare; literature reports the incidence between 0.4-1.3%. Primary sites include the contralateral breast, leukaemia, lymphoma, malignant melanoma, sarcoma, lung, prostate, ovary, colon and the stomach. Here we present a rare case in which lung cancer was found to metastasise to the breast. Initially the patient presented with chest symptoms and a left breast lump was detected clinically.

AbstractThe incidence of breast cancer brain metastases has risen steadily in recent years. Brain metastases are often the limiting factor of the disease, as survival is usually only a few months after brain metastasis occurs. Apart from the poor prognosis, cognitive and neurological deficits lead to a massive impairment of quality of life. HER2-positive or triple-negative cancers develop brain metastases more often.

Abstract:
e11569 Background: Resection of a single brain metastasis (SBM) in metastatic cancer has been shown to improve overall survival (OS). A previously reported series from MD Anderson of breast cancer patients undergoing SBM resection reported a median overall survival of 19 months. We report our experience of SBM resection for breast cancer. Methods: Retrospective observational study of patients who underwent resection of SBM from breast cancer brain in a tertiary referral centre from 2000-2011. Results: 20 patients underwent SBM resection from 2000-2011. All patients received WBRT after surgery.

Abstract:
1105 Background: Preoperative clinical staging in breast cancer patients is important to determine the most appropriate treatment plans and to predict prognosis for individual patients. Identifying unexpected distant metastases in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients frequently alters initial treatment plans. Routine imaging studies to detect lung or liver metastasis is not indicated in patients with early and operable breast cancer. A recent study showed that routine use of chest radiograph and liver ultrasound does not provide much diagnostic benefit in early breast cancer patients. Method

Abstract Metastases to the breast from extramammary tumors are rare. Several clinical, radiologic, and histologic signs can help to distinguish metastases from breast primary tumors. In the present study, we present a case of a left-sided breast metastasis from renal cancer in a 44-year-old woman whose clinical presentation was a mammary nodule in the upper internal quadrant. The patient underwent quadrantectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy. The histology revealed a clear cell carcinoma.

Abstract:
Trastuzumab treatment does not prevent intracranial seeding and is largely ineffective for established central nervous system metastasis in HER2 overexpressing breast cancer patients. Combination therapy of lapatinib and capecitabine may be an effective treatment option for brain metastasis of HER2-positive breast cancer. We report a patient with breast cancer overexpressing HER-2 where brain metastases were successfully treated with radiation and a combination of lapatinib and capecitabine.

We report a case of breast metastasis of signet ring cell gastric cancer clinically presented as a primary inflammatory carcinoma. Metastases to the breast are uncommon; review of the literature demonstrated only 300 cases. The clinical and radiographic features of the metastatic lesion were unlike those reported in the literature. Although a primary signet ring cell breast carcinoma was described, the pathologic patterns of the breast lesion, here reported, lead us to conclude this was a metastasis and not another primary tumor.

Breast cancer patients in rural Appalachia have a high prevalence of obesity and poverty, together with more triple-negative phenotypes. We reviewed clinical records for tumor receptor status and time to distant metastasis. Body mass index, tumor size, grade, nodal status, and receptor status were related to metastatic patterns. For 687 patients, 13.8% developed metastases to bone (n=42) or visceral sites (n=53). Metastases to viscera occurred within five years, a latent period which was shorter than that for bone (P=0.042).

Abstract Olfactory receptors (ORs), responsible for the sense of smell, play an essential role in physiological processes (even outside the nasal epithelium) and cancer. In breast cancer, however, the expression and role of ORs remain understudied. We examined the significance of ORs transcript abundance in breast cancer metastasis to different tissues including the brain, bone, and lung. While we found 20 OR genes to be differentially expressed in different metastasis versus primary tumor, OR5B21 displayed high relation with all metastases.

Approximately 75% of patients with late-stage breast cancer will develop bone metastasis. This condition is currently considered incurable and patients’ life expectancy is limited to 2–3 years following diagnosis of bone involvement.

Abstract:
CXCR4 is a 7-transmembrane G-protein chemokine receptor that allows for migration of hematopoietic cells from the bone marrow to the peripheral lymph nodes. Research has shown CXCR4 to be implicated in the invasion and metastasis of several cancers, including carcinoma of the breast. CXCL12 is the ligand for CXCR4 and is highly expressed in areas common for breast cancer metastasis, including the axillary lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes positive for breast carcinoma have been an important component of breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and subsequent research. The goal of this paper is to a
