Doctors administer sclerotherapy by injecting a sclerant (a sterile chemical which irritates the vein lining) into your vein causing it to close and eventually be reabsorbed into the body. To compensate for the loss of the vein, blood circulation is re-routed through healthy veins.
Abstract. 1  Metaplastic breast cancer (MBC) is a rare subtype of invasive breast cancer that tends to have an aggressive clinical presentation as well as a variety of distinct histologic designations. Few systemic treatment options are available for MBC, as it has consistently shown a suboptimal response to standard chemotherapy regimens.
Metastasis is a complex process that involves the spread of a tumor or cancer to distant parts of the body from its original site. However, this is a difficult process. To successfully colonize a distant area in the body a cancer cell must complete a series of steps before it becomes a clinically detectable lesion.
