Background: Breast cancer is the most common female cancer worldwide representing nearly a quarter (25%) of all cancers. Search for a marker which can predict lymph node metastasis in clinically negative axilla has been a matter of research for long. The present study is an attempt to evaluate role of coagulation makers with special reference to D-dimer and factor 7 and 8 in patients of carcinoma breast in predicting lymph node metastasis in carcinoma patients.Methods: The study was a prospective study conducted in 50 diagnosed patients of carcinoma breast in whom D dimer levels and factor 7 and 8 levels were measured at the time of commencement of the treatment and at six weeks after surgery.Results: Most of the patients in the study group were in the age group 41-70 (80%) years. 22% patients were of early Breast cancer. The reduction in D-dimer, factor VII and factor VIII value after 6 weeks of surgery were significant (p value 0.0001 for all three).Conclusions: D-dimer and factor VII were found to be an independent predictive factor for lymph node metastatsis, thus providing as a safe, easy, objective and convenient supplement to sentinel node biopsy in assessing metastatic disease in axilla. Combined- with other biomarkers, it may prove to be an alternative to sentinel node biopsy in assessing metastatic disease in axilla. Significant postoperative decrease in D-dimer, factor VII and factor VIII may provide objective criteria to assess completion of surgery.

Spindle Cell Type

Spindle cell carcinoma (SpC), also known as metaplastic carcinoma—spindle cell type, is a subtype of metaplastic carcinoma. Metaplastic carcinomas of the breast are rare but are thought to be more aggressive than invasive ductal carcinomas. Due to their rarity, there are few randomized trials that can inform any standardized approaches to treatment. Treatment is instead extrapolated from other types of breast cancer or metaplastic carcinomas of different locations. Here we present the first known case report of a patient with spindle cell carcinoma of the breast successfully treated with a standard sarcoma neoadjuvant regimen of doxorubicin, ifosfamide, and mesna (AIM) that resulted in >99% necrosis of the tumor and negative margins at the time of resection.

AbstractLymph node metastasis is an important prognostic factor in cases of carcinoma breast. In this pictorial essay, various sonographic and elastographic signs of lymph node metastasis are described with classical images.
