French term or phrase: forme négligée
This is from a hospital discharge summary of a patient with metastatic breast cancer, which spread to the lungs and brain.

HISTOIRE DE LA MALADIE:
Diagnostic carcinome mammaire canalaire + lobulaire droit, forme négligée, MCA, puis radiothérapie.

I am inclined to translated "forme négligée"as untreated (i.e. previously untreated).

Would you agree?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
