Abstract

Background: Breast angiosarcoma is a rare malignancy arising from endothelial cell lining, approximately 0.04–0.05% of all breast malignancies and less than 1% of all sarcomas. Consisting of primary breast angiosarcoma (PAS) and secondary breast angiosarcoma (SAS). Diagnosis is often delayed because the case is rare and asymptomatic, the lump is painless, grows quickly, progressive disease can develop distant metastasize, and the prognosis is reportedly poor. Case presentation: This case series presents two cases of primary breast angiosarcoma; the first patient is a patient who needs to obtain a diagnosis through physical examination, imaging, surgery, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry. The second patient is how to reconstruct the surgical defect using the Latissimus dorsi flap, and interestingly, with thirteen years of survival without recurrence, Surgery is the main treatment with high local recurrence. Wide excision in the form of a simple mastectomy is recommended if a tumor-free margin of 2-3 cm cannot be achieved. Tumor excision, or cosmesis, is not achieved, which is related to the proportion of breast and tumor size. The use of radiation therapy and neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy is still controversial. Conclusion: Establishing a diagnosis with a thorough examination starts with anamnesis, physical examination, radiological examination, and histopathology, including immunohistochemistry, which is an important examination in confirming the diagnosis.

Abstract

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer has a percentage of 15% to 20% in breast cancer patients at the time of first diagnosis. Guidelines from St. Gallen guidelines, the American Society of Clinical Oncology, and the American College of Pathology state that triple-negative breast cancer is breast cancer with ER and PR expression <1%. As an aggressive subtype, outcomes are poor when compared with hormone receptor-positive. Methods: This research is an observational study. The research subjects in this study were triple-negative breast cancer patients in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Surgical Oncology division, West Java, Indonesia, from October 2018 - November 2023. There were 702 research subjects who would be studied. Characteristics of triple-negative breast cancer were taken from medical records. Results: The results showed that the average age of the subjects was 47 years. Based on histology, the most common was Invasive Carcinoma of no special type (86.75%), followed by Invasive lobular carcinoma (7.26%), medullary carcinoma (1.7%), micropapillary carcinoma (0.99%), metaplastic carcinoma (2.36%) and the least amount is Pleomorphic invasive lobular carcinoma (0.71%). The side of the breast affected is not significant, and the highest grade is 3. The involvement of lymph node metastases is due to aggressive tumor subtypes and lymphovascular invasion. Lymphovascular invasion is known to be a negative prognostic factor. It is a late stage for metastasis and local recurrence. Conclusion: Triple-negative breast cancer is breast cancer that has histopathological heterogeneity; most of the tumors are grade 3 and have significant metastases in regional lymph nodes. There is no significant relationship between grading and regional lymph node metastases. there is a significant relationship between lymphovascular invasion and regional lymph nodes metastases.

Methods: This research involved 200 breast cancer sufferers recruited from hospitals in West Java. Data was collected using a questionnaire that measured psychological stress, demographic factors, social factors, and medical factors. Data analysis was carried out using multinomial logistic regression to identify risk factors associated with the occurrence of psychological stress. Results: The research results show that the incidence of psychological stress in breast cancer sufferers in West Java is 42%. Risk factors that are significantly associated with the occurrence of psychological stress are young age, unmarried marital status, low social support, high levels of anxiety, and advanced cancer stage. Conclusion: This research shows that several risk factors can increase the incidence of psychological stress in breast cancer sufferers in West Java. These findings can be used to develop more effective interventions to help breast cancer survivors cope with psychological stress.
