Abstract

Metaplastic carcinoma is a heterogeneous group of invasive breast carcinomas (IMC) characterized by the differentiation of neoplastic epithelium to squamous cells and/or mesenchymal-like elements. It presents clinically as a palpable nodule and as a mass lesion on mammography and ultrasound. The present report evidenced a 50-year-old woman with a clinically hardened, irregular, ill-defined nodule measuring 2 cm, in the UQS and with a free axilla. Mammography and ultrasonography showed BI-RADS 5. After anatomopathological and immunohistochemical study, the diagnosis of chondro-osteosarcomatous matrix-producing metaplastic invasive breast carcinoma was made. It is noteworthy that some metaplastic carcinomas may have components that resemble true soft tissue sarcomas.
