Abstract
Secretory breast carcinoma is a rare variant of invasive breast cancers. This tumor was first classified in juvenile age breast tumors category and, however, with the increase in the incidences of these tumoral structures in adults, it was included in adult breast cancers classification. This paper presents a 38 year old female patient who admitted with complaints of palpable mass in the right breast and reported as ‘malignant epithelial tumor’ as a result of excisional biopsy and diagnosed with ‘secretory carcinoma’ following a right modified radical mastectomy in the continued process and axillary dissection.
