Abstract
A 90-year-old woman presented at our emergency department complaining of dyspnea (sO2 88% on room air, respiratory rate 24/min) and severe (NRS 8/10) burning chest pain. Ten years earlier, she had undergone a bilateral radical mastectomy and radio-chemotherapy for breast cancer. In September 2023, she developed some nodules on her chest skin treated with electrochemotherapy, multiple liver lesions, and a bilateral paraneoplastic pleural effusion.
