Abstract

Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the common cancers & is responsible for leading cause of cancer death among the women worldwide. The risk of local and distant recurrence is the highest during the first two years post initial treatment. Late relapse is uncommon in breast cancer survivors. Case Report We report a case of 48-year-old breast cancer survivor reporting 12 years after being treated for left sided breast cancer. She reported with c/o shortness of breath and backache as her chief complaint. CECT Thorax revealed well defined lobulated soft tissue lesion in rt subdiaphragmatic para sternal location. Biopsy and IHC from this mass revealed adenocarcinoma consistent with breast origin with ER, PR positivity. Conclusion: The question arises that is lifelong follow up required in ca breast patients as late relapses are not quite common but can arise at any stage in breast cancer.
