Secondary bone marrow malignancies after adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer: a report of 2 cases and a review of the literature.

CONCLUSIONS: By literature review, these 2 cases do not support the relationship between primary tumor treatment and secondary cancer, but strongly suggest the need for histologic samples when bone metastasis occurred after years from diagnosis of breast cancer. In this setting, the oncologist should take into account a secondary bone marrow tumor before starting treatment for breast cancer. PMID: 26979247 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
