Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings April 2017 - 202

Three underwent mastectomy, and 6 underwent lumpectomy.
Eight of the 9 underwent axillary dissection, and 7 underwent
adjuvant chemotherapy. Metastases to the liver and bone developed in 11 and 32 months in 2 patients (9).
Although possibly less fatal than SCLC, extrapulmonary
small cell cancer remains a very aggressive cancer. Despite the
lack of formal randomized controlled trials, the application of
SCLC treatment to primary small cell carcinoma of the breast
appears to carry the best chance of survival. Our patient underwent neoadjuvant treatment with the recommended platinumbased carboplatin and etoposide, followed by mastectomy and
axillary dissection. At the time of writing, she was 15 months
out from her diagnosis and was disease free.
