Primary Intermammary Breast Carcinoma Presenting With Direct Sternal Invasion: A Diagnostic Pitfall of Standard Screening Mammography. (PubMed, Am J Case Rep) - Oct 16, 2026 - "CASE REPORT An 85-year-old woman with a past medical history of follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma treated with bendamustine-rituximab in 2017 (without chest radiation) and significant family history of breast cancer presented to our clinic 2 months after noticing a hard, non-tender nodule on her sternum. CONCLUSIONS This case highlights a rare intermammary presentation of breast carcinoma with direct sternal invasion, a feature not previously reported. It emphasizes the blind spot of standard screening mammography in the medial breast/cleavage area and the necessity of targeted imaging for palpable parasternal masses, even in the setting of recent negative screens."
