Case Reports[Locally Advanced Breast Cancer Treated with Mohs' Paste and Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy-A Case Report].
Cutaneous infiltration by breast cancer significantly reduces patient quality of life(QOL)due to bleeding, exudate, and pain. We report a case of combined treatment using Mohs' paste and neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced breast cancer. Mohs' paste decreased bleeding and exudate from the tumor and neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab down-staged a large tumor to a volume that permitted mastectomy. Good local control using Mohs' paste and neoadjuvant chemotherapy can improve patient QOL and reduce the physical burden.
