Abstract

ABSTRACT
Metastasis of gastric carcinoma to the breast is relatively uncommon. It may cause difficulty in differentiating metastasis from primary breast cancer. Our patient was 64 year-old woman presented with dysphagia, weight loss and mass on right breast. Mammography showed mass on the right breast and computerized tomographic scan of the abdomen showed thickening of the gastric cardia and small curvature. Pathological evaluation of both breast mass and gastric lesion showed that there is a primary gastric carcinoma and the mass on the breast is the metastasis of this primary gastric carcinoma. In this report; we present a case of gastric carcinoma with metastasis to the breast.
