Objective To evaluate the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of occult breast cancer(OBC). Methods Clinical data of 12 OBC cases from June 1995 to June 2006 were retrospectively analyzed.Results There were 12 female; the mean age was 52.7 years(39～66). Tumor of all cases was in one of breasts, left(10 cases) or right(2 cases), 4 cases in pro- menostasis, 8 cases in post-menopause, and inci-dence of OBC in all kinds of breast cancer was 0.5% (12/2385). All cases were found because of lump in axillary fossa, the biopsy of 10 showed cases were lymph node adenocarcinoma metastatic, the fine needle aspiration of 2 cases were lymph node adenocarcinoma metastatic. Three cases were positive in the determi-nation of estrogen receptor of lymph node adenocareinoma metastatic. Two cases, suspecting breast cancer,could be found fine calcification in the examination of breast X-ray molybdenum target in 10 cases. Buhra-sound in 11 cases and near infrared ray scan in 10 cases did not detect cancer in breast; chest X-ray and Bultrasound in 10 cases and CT and all over the body bone scan in 5 cases did not found any cancer besides breast. Ten cases used modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer, one case radical mastectomy for breast cancer, one palliative operation. Pathological diagnosis of 9 cases after operation found breast primary le-sion, 6 cases were infiltrated duct cancer, 3 eases were intraductal cancer. All cases received radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Three cases which were positive in the determination of estrogen receptor of lymph node adenocarcinoma metastatic received TAM. Followed-up was made from 3 to 10 years, 11 cases were not found recurrence or metastses, and 5 cases had been living over 5 years. Conclusions OBC is one of rare special breast cancers. The powerful infiltrating capability leads to lump in axillary fessa in prophase and dis-rant metastses. The biopsy and fine needle aspiration would be used for diagnosis. Modified radical mastecto-my for breast cancer is the usual therapy method.
