title: Breast cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and mucormycosis.
abstract: Prolonged survival following diagnosis of lipid-rich carcinoma of breast is unusual. We report on a patient in whom lipid-rich carcinoma of one breast, invasive ductal carcinoma of the other breast and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia were diagnosed simultaneously; she survived 14 years without breast tumour recurrence and died with atypical mucormycosis.
