Abstract

Treatment options in metastatic breast cancer are limited, and the general approach is treatment with systemic chemotherapy. However, today, the survival of patients with advanced-stage breast cancer can be extended with targeted therapies. Surgical treatment of the primary tumour called toilet mastectomy is inevitable in cases of bleeding, infection, and advanced breast cancer with skin involvement. This case report is aimed to present the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient with advanced breast cancer who underwent toilet mastectomy.

Özet

Metastatik meme kanserinde tedavi seçenekleri sınırlıdır ve genel yaklaşım sistemik kemoterapi ile tedavidir. Ancak günümüzde ileri evre meme kanserli hastaların yaşam süreleri hedefe yönelik tedaviler ile uzatılabilmektedir. Tuvalet mastektomi adı verilen primer tümörün cerrahi tedavisi, kanamalı, enfeksiyonlu ve deri tutulumu olan ilerlemiş meme kanseri durumlarında kaçınılmazdır. Bu olgu sunumunda ileri evre meme kanserli ve tuvalet mastektomi yapılan bir hastanın tanı ve tedavi sürecinin sunulması amaçlanmaktadır.
