Abstract

A 52-year-old woman developed an infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast 16 years after being treated for comedocarcinoma of the left breast. Although the tumor was high grade with lymphatic space invasion and incompletely excised, the patient declined adjunctive therapy. Within 2 years, she developed metastasis to supraclavicular lymph nodes, which was diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration cytology.
