ABSTRACT
The patient was a 53-year-old woman with a large left breast tumor. Triple-negative breast cancer with bilateral axillary lymph-node metastasis and bone metastasis was diagnosed. The primary treatment consisted of chemotherapy with a combination of paclitaxel(PTX 80mg/m 2)and bevacizumab(Bev 10 mg/kg). After chemotherapy, the tumor shrunk and showed an obvious decrease in size, eventually disappearing. After therapy, an ulcer was detected on the left breast, and mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection were performed. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful and she has been receiving chemotherapy at our outpatient clinic. Thus, combination therapy with PTX and Bev may be useful for the local control of advanced breast cancer.
