Figure 1

A 43 year-old woman with IBC. (A) Baseline breast MRI prior to the NAC shows a diffusely enhanced tumor in the left breast with diffuse enhancement and thickening of the skin. (B) After 2 cycles of AC, the skin enhancement is subsided but the primary tumor in the left breast remains without improvement. (C) After 4 cycles of AC, the tumor response is still not obvious compared to the image after 2 cycles of AC. (D) After completion of NAC, combining AC plus TCH, both the main tumor and the skin lesion disappear. CCR was hence diagnosed. Final pathology after surgery showed pCR.
