Mamouch, F., et al. (2018) Inflammatory Breast Cancer: A Literature Review. World Journal of Oncology, 2018 Nov;9(5-6):129-135. doi: 10.14740/wjon1161.
The multidisciplinary management of inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), which is the most aggressive form of breast cancer due to its rapid proliferation, has changed over the past three decades thanks to advances in medical treatments that represent the basis of treatment, without eliminating the use of locoregional treatments including surgery and radiotherapy in the localized stages. The molecular profile determination of IBC allows the orientation towards new targeted therapeutic strategies with an impact on survival.
