Reappearance of isolated chest wall local recurrences after radical mastectomy during the five consecutive year period
Breast cancer is most common cancer in women. After surgical treatment and adjuvant therapy, locoregional recurrences do occur in certain number of patients. Herein we report a breast cancer patient who developed isolated chest wall local recurrence 3 years after mastectomy which was reappearing in next fi ve consecutive years. Multimodal treatment which includes surgical excision and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy can achieve a signifi cant degree of palliation when locoregional recurrences are diagnosed. In our case, inclusion of adjuvant treatment did not provide satisfactory local control of disease therefore repetitive surgical excision was the only modality which off ered our patient 7 years of overall survival after fi rst excision of local recurrence.
