The development of improved diagnostic techniques, increased survival of cancer patients and the growing life expectancy have all contributed to the increased frequency of this phenomenon. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to review the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) findings of synchronous breast carcinoma and other solid malignancies. METHODS: This retrospective study included 65 patients confirmed with diagnosis of synchronous breast carcinoma and other solid malignancies. CT scanning was performed using 128 MDCT in all patients. All one hundred-thirty malignancies underwent pathological evaluation. RESULTS: Out of 4120 patients with breast carcinoma; 65 patients were diagnosed with other synchronous primary solid malignancy. All one hundred-thirty malignancies were confirmed pathologically. Breast carcinoma detected in all 65 patients; of them metastatic breast carcinoma detected in 8 patients. Hepatocellular carcinoma was detected in 18 patients, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 12 patients, endometrial carcinoma in 8 patients, uterine sarcoma in 3 patients, malignant mixed M\u00fcllerian tumor in one patient, ovarian carcinoma in 5 patients, renal cell carcinoma in 4 patients, thyroid carcinoma in 4 patients, gastric carcinoma in 2 patients, colonic carcinoma in 2 patients, ano-rectal carcinoma in one patient, hilar cholangiocarcinoma in 2 patients, malignant melanoma in 2 patients and bronchogenic carcinoma in one patient. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with breast carcinoma have a risk of other synchronous primary malignancy. So, careful preoperative examination is recommended to improve the patients\u2019 prognosis. MDCT scanning is accurately imaging modality for evaluation of synchronous breast carcinoma and other solid malignancies. The aim of treatment in cancer patients should always be curative even in the presence of multiple malignancies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/bd-201065","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,8]],"date-time":"2021-06-08T16:45:57Z","timestamp":1623170757000},"page":"275-281","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["MDCT evaluation of synchronous breast carcinoma and other solid malignancies"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Adel","family":"El-Badrawy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":", Mansoura University Faculty of Medicine, , , Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","reference":[{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"345","DOI":"10.4174\/astr.2015.88.6.345","article-title":"Synchronous triple primary cancers occurring in the stomach, kidney, and thyroid","volume":"88","author":"Oh","year":"2015","journal-title":"Ann Surg Treat Res"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"737","DOI":"10.4103\/jcrt.JCRT_270_17","article-title":"Synchronous double malignancy of lip and submandibular salivary gland with rare histology","volume":"15","author":"Darlington","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Cancer Res Ther"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"839","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.10124","article-title":"Role of bone scan in addition to CT in patients with breast cancer selected for systemic staging","volume":"103","author":"McCartan","year":"2016","journal-title":"Br J Surg"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"78","DOI":"10.1097\/MLR.0000000000000832","article-title":"Prevalence and consequences of axillary lymph node dissection in the era of sentinel lymph node biopsy for breast cancer","volume":"56","author":"Yen","year":"2018","journal-title":"Med Care"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"61","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0030-1247133","article-title":"Current strategy for staging and treatment: the BCLC update and future prospects","volume":"30","author":"Forner","year":"2010","journal-title":"Semin Liver Dis"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"245","DOI":"10.1002\/ijgo.12789","article-title":"A proposal for updating the staging of endometrial cancer","volume":"145","author":"Maheshwari","year":"2019","journal-title":"Int J Gynaecol Obstet"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"685","DOI":"10.1007\/s00261-018-1779-6","article-title":"Imaging in the pre-operative staging of ovarian cancer","volume":"44","author":"Castellani","year":"2019","journal-title":"Abdom Radiol (NY)"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1545","DOI":"10.1007\/s00247-019-04529-8","article-title":"Imaging for diagnosis, staging and response assessment of Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma","volume":"49","author":"McCarten","year":"2019","journal-title":"Pediatr Radiol"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref10","first-page":"1358","article-title":"Multiple primary malignant tumors","volume":"16","author":"Warren","year":"1932","journal-title":"Am J Cancer"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"9271","DOI":"10.4238\/2014.March.12.19","article-title":"Clinical retrospective analysis of cases with multiple primary malignant neoplasms","volume":"12","author":"Xu","year":"2014","journal-title":"Genet Mol Res"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"666","DOI":"10.3389\/fonc.2018.00666","article-title":"Predictive value of preoperative multidetector-row computed tomography for axillary lymph nodes metastasis in patients with breast cancer","volume":"8","author":"Chen","year":"2019","journal-title":"Front Oncol"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"566","DOI":"10.1158\/1055-9965.EPI-06-0782","article-title":"Multiple cancer prevalence: a growing challenge in long-term survivorship","volume":"16","author":"Mariotto","year":"2007","journal-title":"Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"k2387","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.k2387","article-title":"Prevalence and outcomes of incidental imaging findings: umbrella review","volume":"361","author":"O\u2019Sullivan","year":"2018","journal-title":"BMJ"},{"key":"10.3233\/BD-201065_ref15","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"635","DOI":"10.1148\/radiol.14132361","article-title":"CT and MR imaging diagnosis and staging of hepatocellular carcinoma: part I.
