Abstract

Most common histology of breast neoplasm is infiltrating ductal carcinoma. Primary osteosarcoma of breast is a rare histology. A 66-year-old postmenopausal female patient presented in outpatient department with a breast lump in right breast. Then core needle biopsy from right breast lump showed infiltrating ductal carcinoma. The disease became progressive even after multiple cycle chemotherapy. After toilet mastectomy, it showed osteosarcoma of breast. It is a rare case report which shows metaplastic change from an infiltrating duct carcinoma to osteosarcoma after chemotherapy.

Keywords: Infiltrating ductal carcinoma, osteosarcoma, mastectomy, metaplastic.
