Spontaneous regression of biologically aggressive breast carcinoma: A case report

Abstract

The spontaneous regression of cancer is the partial or complete remission of a tumor without treatment, and this has been linked to trauma and infection. The present case details the rare spontaneous regression of a triple negative Grade III ductal carcinoma in the breast. The findings suggest that in our case, this may have been triggered by biopsy and marker clip deployment, and it highlights the importance of being aware of this unusual occurrence so timely diagnosis can be made without causing undue anxiety in patients.
