The article presents data about the lesion of the nipple-areola complex in breast cancer. In 2015-2016 surgical treatment was performed in 101 breast cancer patients, different in size but with the mandatory removal of the nipple-areola complex. There are analyzed the dependence of the lesion of the nipple-areola complex from histological types of breast cancer, molecular subtypes, multicentricity, the location of tumor in the breast. The most significant criterion was the dependence of the lesion of the nipple-areola complex from the distance between tumor node and the nipple.

Breast cancer is still associated with high mortality rates and one of the most important factors governing long survival is accurate and early diagnosis. In underdeveloped countries, this disease frequently is only detected in advanced stages; however, through mammography, many women have been diagnosed at early stages. In this context, the sentinel lymph node (SLN) technique is associated with less postoperative morbidity compared to axillary lymphadenectomy. Lymphoscintigraphy has emerged as a method for the evaluation of lymphatic drainage chains in various tumours, being both accurate and non invasive. The aim of this work is to present the main aspects which cause controversy about SLN and lymphoscintigraphy and the impact that these procedures have had on lymphedema after surgical treatment for breast cancer. A short review including papers in English, Spanish and Portuguese, available on Lilacs and Medline database, published between January, 2000 and July, 2008 was performed. The key words breast cancer, lymphoscintigraphy, SLN biopsy, lymphedema were used. Various studies have aimed to compare the incidence and prevalence of lymphedema according to the technique used; however, the population subjected to SLN is different from the one with indication for axillary lymphadenectomy regarding staging. Moreover, little is known about long term morbidity since it is a relatively new technique. In conclusion, the development of surgical techniques has permitted to minimize deformities and the current trend is that these techniques be as conservative as possible. Thus, lymphoscintigraphy plays an important role in the identification of SLN, contributing to the prevention and minimization of postoperative complications.

Resumen El cáncer de mama localmente avanzado supone una entidad poco frecuente que requiere de un abordaje multidisciplinar. La quimioterapia neoadyuvante supone el tratamiento inicial fundamental, seguido de un tratamiento quirúrgico que suele conllevar una mastectomía, estando en debate el rescate axilar. Presentamos el caso de una paciente con cáncer de mama derecha localmente avanzado con afectación axilar derecha y afectación de un ganglio axilar contralateral, a la que el marcaje de la axila contralateral con una semilla de I125 y la demostración de respuesta axilar patológica completa, permitió la realización de BSGC de la axila izquierda, evitando una linfadenectomia axilar.

For patients with breast cancer, obtaining tissue samples from liver lesion becomes more and more important for both differential diagnosis and subsequent treatment. However, the procedure is not considered as mandatory routine and is not frequently performed. We here reported about a patient with breast cancer history and a solitary liver metastasis that was clinically diagnosed by both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and position emission tomography - computed tomography (PET-CT). However, pathologic diagnosis after partial hepatectomy (between sections VII and VIII) revealed multifocal granulomas. The case further addresses the importance of core needle biopsy, or surgical biopsy, for obtainment of a histological diagnosis, especially in the presence of a solitary lesion, even when the lesion has a typical medical imaging supporting metastasis, and uptake of radioactive 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) by PET-CT.
