Primary neuroendocrine breast carcinomas (NEBCs) are extremely uncommon tumors. The scarcity of data prevents any randomized studies that would establish guidelines or recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of such a rare entity. • This report describes an interesting case of an NEBC that recurred about 10 years after initial diagnosis, with an impressive long-term disease control using hormonal therapy.
