Endovascular approach to acute hemorrhage in locally advanced breast cancer.

Stacy Ugras1, Mary L Gemignani, Peter H Connolly, David J Finley.   

Abstract

We report a case of a woman with recurrent axillary fungating breast cancer who developed catastrophic hemorrhage from tumor erosion of her axillary artery. This was treated successfully with endovascular placement of a covered arterial stent. We discuss the suitability of endovascular therapy for patients with advanced malignancy given its lower morbidity in this population with decreased life expectancy.
