ABSTRACT: Primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast is a rare tumor that has been considered special features within conventional breast carcinomas until recently. In this article, we present a case report of a 77-year-old woman with a metastatic grade I primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast that has been growing for seven years. The patient was treated with hormone therapy with good outcome.
