Abstract
A case report is described referring to a patient affected by single bone metastasis to the cranium from breast cancer. A traditional pharmacological approach was tried but proved clinically disappointing, though radiological and scintigraphic investigation confirmed a complete regression of the metastasis following a combined therapy with beta-interferon and tamoxifen for six months. Results suggest that beta-interferon and tamoxifen may offer an alternative effective approach in treating metastatic breast cancer.File in questo prodotto:
