Authors: JEFFREY S. YOUNG MD, MICHAEL J. STERCHI MD, MARBRY HOPKINS MD

Abstract

ABSTRACT: We report a case of bilateral medullary carcinoma of the breast occurring asynchronously in a young woman and review the epidemiology of this form of breast cancer. Clinical and radiographic surveillance are necessary in the follow-up of all women with medullary carcinoma of the breast to ensure that further disease is detected rapidly and treated properly.
