Abstract
We have described a case of ovarian carcinoma with bilateral breast involvement. In patients with a previous history of carcinoma who have a breast tumor, metastatic disease must be considered and the histologic features of the tumors compared. Therapy is focused on the primary site, though local treatment may be necessary. The presence of metastatic breast involvement generally indicates widespread metastases, and the prognosis is poor.Keywords
