Article Synopsis
- CA 15-3 is a tumor marker for breast cancer primarily used to monitor therapy in advanced cases, but its role in systemic sclerosis-associated lung disease (SSc-ILD) is unclear.* -
- A case study involving a 63-year-old woman with recurrent breast cancer and SSc-ILD highlighted the importance of recognizing lung complications during cancer treatment, especially after she reported shortness of breath after chemotherapy.* -
- The study emphasizes the need for a differential diagnosis of lung involvement in breast cancer patients, indicating that elevated CA 15-3 levels can be linked to conditions like SSc-ILD instead of just cancer progression.*
Background: Spontaneous regression (SR) is a rare phenomenon in which a cancer disappears or remits without treatment. We report a case of breast cancer that showed spontaneous tumor regression in the surgical specimen after core needle biopsy.
Case Presentation: A 59-year-old woman came to our hospital complaining of a painful lump in the right breast.
Trichomonad is a type of flagellate that parasitizes the human oral cavity, intestine, or vagina. However, respiratory infection is rare. We report a patient with pyothorax related to Tetratrichomonas species, which is the first reported case in Japan.
