Abstract:

Primary neuroendocrine tumors of the breast are relatively rare and aggressive tumors that present a great diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Amongst the Neuro Endocrine Carcinomas of Breast (NECB), small cell neuroendocrine tumors are associated with poorest prognosis. We present our experience with a case of primary small cell NECB, the diagnostic and management strategy along with a review of literature.
