Local recurrence due to needle tract seeding is rare because the immune system eliminates the cancer cells in most cases. In addition, most local recurrences due to needle tract seeding occur as invasive carcinoma after diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast or mucinous carcinoma, and needle tract seeding due to noninvasive carcinoma is uncommon. We herein report a rare case of local breast cancer recurrence histologically resembling Paget disease, presumably due to needle tract seeding after core needle biopsy for diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast. After receiving a diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ, the patient underwent skin-sparing mastectomy and breast reconstruction with a latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap. The pathological study showed ER/PgR-negative ductal carcinoma in situ, and no postoperative radiation therapy or systemic therapy was administered. Six months after the surgery, the patient had a breast cancer recurrence histologically resembling Paget disease, presumably in the scar of her core needle biopsy. The pathological study showed Paget disease localized in the epidermis, no invasive carcinoma, and no lymph node metastasis. It was morphologically similar to the primary lesion and was diagnosed as a local recurrence due to needle tract seeding.</p>","PeriodicalId":13703,"journal":{"name":"International Cancer Conference Journal","volume":"12 2","pages":"143-148"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9989070/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9086356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optimal treatment for advanced thymic mucinous adenocarcinoma has not yet been established because of its rarity. An oral multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, lenvatinib, was approved for treatment of thymic carcinoma in March 2021 in Japan. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no published reports concerning lenvatinib for thymic mucinous adenocarcinoma. Herein, we report a 39-year-old woman who presented with a 70 mm multilocular cystic tumor in her left anterior mediastinum and a massive pericardial effusion. We diagnosed a Masaoka stage IVb thymic mucinous adenocarcinoma with multiple metastases to the liver and bones, and pericardial dissemination on the basis of the pathologic findings on examination of a video-assisted thoracoscopic tumor biopsy and radiological examinations. She received paclitaxel-carboplatin-based chemotherapy, but developed a left cerebellar metastasis. Second-line chemotherapy with lenvatinib failed to suppress the tumor. She died of cancer progression 5 months after presentation. Here, we report what we believe to be the first case of a thymic mucinous adenocarcinoma treated with lenvatinib. Our patient's thymic mucinous adenocarcinoma was refractory to both cytotoxic chemotherapy and lenvatinib. Using next-generation sequencing, we identified phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha mutation in the tumor. We suspected an association between this mutation and resistance to lenvatinib. We therefore recommend performing next-generation sequencing when considering introduction of lenvatinib for thymic mucinous adenocarcinoma.

The cancer responded well to chemotherapy, but her neurological status continued to deteriorate, eventually progressing to complete expressive aphasia and dyssynergia with paraparesis. Due to the extraordinarily rapid progression of the disorder, a treatment with tumorectomy and radiotherapy of the whole brain was performed. This proved to be very successful, with a complete stop of the deterioration of symptoms after treatment and with a significant neurologic improvement in the following months. This case indicates that there may be a place for radiotherapy in the treatment of PCD. Current treatment options have proven insufficient and no guidelines for treatment currently exist. As such, the disorder remains associated with a very poor prognosis and often entails permanent loss of function. Radiation, with its known immunosuppressive effect and non-stochastic effects on the nervous system at the proper doses, might therefore be a valid option.
