Kefah Mokbel: How diagnostic trauma may trigger tumour regression through immune response

Kefah Mokbel, Chair of The Multidisciplinary Breast Cancer Program at London Breast Institute, shared on LinkedIn:

“For patients reluctant to undergo core biopsy for suspected breast cancer due to fears that the cancer could spread, I explain that local trauma generated by the diagnostic percutaneous biopsy could trigger an immune response causing tumor regression.

This case report highlights this phenomenon.”
