The NCCN Panel recommends that metastatic disease at presentation The NCCN Panel recommends that metastatic disease at presentation The NCCN Panel recommends that metastatic disease at presentation or first recurrence of disease should be biopsied as a part of the workup or first recurrence of disease should be biopsied as a part of the workup or first recurrence of disease should be biopsied as a part of the workup The NCCN Panel recommends that metastatic disease at presentation or first recurrence of disease should be biopsied as a part of the workup for patients with recurrent or stage IV disease. This ensures accurate determination of metastatic/ recurrent disease and tumor histology, and allows for biomarker determination and selection of appropriate treatment. Efforts should be made to obtain histopathological confirmation whenever technically feasible, particularly in the situation of an isolated metastatic lesion. Biological markers important for treatment decisions, such as steroid hormone receptors (ER, PR) and HER-2 status should be re-evaluated, at least once, in a metastatic lesion. http://www.nccn.org/professionals/physician_gls/pdf/breast.pdf for patients with recurrent or stage IV disease.

What is the eviddence? HER2 discordance between primary breast cancer and its paired metastasis: tumor biology or test artefact? Insights through meta-analysis Nehmat Houssami, Petra Macaskill, Rosemary L. Balleine, Michael Bilous,Mark D. Pegram 2520 patints, 26 retrospectives studies. Discordancy ratio: 5.5% (3.6 -8.5%) Major discrepancy between initial diagnosis and metastases, less for regional nodes. (4.1% vs 3.3%) Breast Cancer Res Treat 129, 659-674 (2011)
