Acute urine retention following medullary compression of metastatic breast cancer in the spinal cord: Rare symptomatlogic presentation and management
The management of locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer has evolved since 2021, with confirmation of the role of cell cycle inhibitors. The discovery of breast cancer is often the result of self-examination through the discovery of a nodule, but may also be due to symptoms at the metastatic...

Sumario: | The management of locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer has evolved since 2021, with confirmation of the role of cell cycle inhibitors. The discovery of breast cancer is often the result of self-examination through the discovery of a nodule, but may also be due to symptoms at the metastatic site. The spinal cord is one of the rare sites of metastatic breast cancer involvement. We report the management of a rare case of metastatic breast cancer in the spinal cord, discovered following acute urinary retention. |
