Unexpected long-term survival in a BRCA2 patient with metastatic carcinosarcoma associated with tamoxifen.

Ana Clara1, Isabel Fonseca2, Ana Francisca1, António Bettencourt1, Fátima Vaz1.   

Abstract

► This report concerns a long survival of a BRCA2 patient with a relapsing uterine carcinosarcoma. ► Rarity of long survivorship in relapsing carcinosarcoma is confirmed by literature review. ► BRCA2 status plus platinum-hypersensitivity as contributors for the favorable outcome, even if carcinosarcoma doesn't belong to the BRCA1/2 phenotype.
