We report on a patient with metastatic breast cancer confined to visceral (lung and pleura) site. A high-dose chemotherapy with peripheral progenitor blood cell transplantation was indicated. In contrast to other 24 patients two induction cycle chemotherapies (intensive dosis of Epirubicin/Ifosfamid/GCSF) didn't show any remission of metastases. Therefore a high dose chemotherapy with peripheral progenitor blood cell transplantation was not indicated any more. This patient had lung and pleura metastases and showed a complete remission after the following conventional chemotherapy (Carboplatin/Toxol) persisting more than 7 months. Non-responder after induction therapies have a poor prognosis but salvage therapy may be successful anyway. Mammary neoplasms can be sensible on special chemotherapy drugs only.
