    it's a  recurrent tumor with new biology. Metaplastic ca is a bad tumor to treat, I will recommend MRM.

    Recurrence with interim progression to endocrine insensitivity. Treat with mastectomy and surveillance then consider palliative chemotherapy if disease relapses. Not for 'adjuvant' chemotherapy now as this is a recurrence and it will not change outcome.
