Abstract:
A 24-year-old patient who developed breast cancer 16 years after chemotherapy for osteosarcoma is presented. She had no family history of cancer. She had also not had radiotherapy. She had been given chemotherapy consisting of VAOMT (vincristine 10.2 mg, cyclophosphamide 900 mg, mitomycin C 15.2 mg, chromomycin A3 25.8 mg) pre- and post-operatively in the treatment of her osteosarcoma. Careful long-term follow-up is required after treatment of malignant neoplasms because there is a possibility of developing a second malignancy.
