Abstract

A 49-year-old pre-menopausal woman was diagnosed with left breast cancer(T2N0M0, stage II A). She was also diagnosed with chronic renal failure for the first time. We performed left breast conserving surgery and sentinel lymph node biopsy. Afterwards, we administered TC therapy(docetaxel 75mg/m / 2, cyclophosphamide 250 mg/m2)as adjuvant therapy every four weeks. No serious side effects occurred during therapy. TC therapy was a safe regimen for a patient with chronic renal failure in our case.
