    AbstractWe report a case of a 42-year-old woman with bone marrow carcinomatosis in the course of metastatic breast cancer who responded well to paclitaxel plus bevacizumab(PTX plus Bev)combination therapy. Four years after initial breast conserving surgery, she was admitted to our hospital with back pain and general malaise and was diagnosed as multiple bone metastases with bone marrow carcinomatosis originating from previous breast cancer(ER+/HER2-). While administering denosumab, we initiated systemic chemotherapy with PTX plus Bev. There has been no sign of progression at 1 year after beginning the treatment. Therefore, we conclude that PTX plus Bev combination therapy could be effective and sustainable treatment for bone marrow carcinomatosis arising from metastatic breast cancer.
