We present the case of a 45 year old women with recurrent deep vein thrombosis of left lower limb. During the second episode she was found to have infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the right breast with axillary lymph node metastasis. To our knowledge there have been only one literature report of breast carcinoma in which the sole presenting symptom complex was venous thrombosis Key words: Breast carcinoma, Deep vein thrombosis CR - Sİrensen HT, Mellemkjær L, Steffensen FH, Jİrgen H.
