ABSTRACT
This case report aims to describe the clinical presentation, imaging findings, histopathological features and therapeutic approach of a patient diagnosed with coexisting breast sarcoma and thymoma. A 64-year-old woman presented with a palpable lump in her left breast, and subsequent imaging studies (ultrasound, mammography, and MRI) revealed breast sarcoma, a rare and aggressive subtype of breast cancer. At the same time, the MRI revealed the presence of a thymoma. A multidisciplinary approach involving surgeon, breast specialist and oncologist is essential for optimal management and favorable outcomes in patients with this rare diagnosis.
