Abstract
Despite the known association of these malignancies, the incidence of a synchronous presentation of breast and ovarian cancer is low, and the current literature does not address an approach to this clinical problem directly. We report a greater than 2.5 year disease-free survival in a patient treated for synchronous stage IIIB inflammatory breast cancer and stage IIIC epithelial ovarian cancer. The prolonged disease-free survival in our case may provide some guidance in this unusual clinical situation.
