Distant metastases are rare during the course of ovarian carcinoma. Ovarian epithelial adenocarcinomas rarely metastasize to the skin which is seen in less than 4% of patients. It usually presents as subcutaneous nodules and, less commonly, as inflammatory metastases which mimic cellulitis or viral or bacterial skin infections.

We report a case of orbital metastasis in a previously diagnosed metastatic breast cancer in a 46-year old woman presenting with diplopia and proptosis of her left eye bulb. An orbital computed-tomography (CT) and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) both revealed an intra-orbital extra-bulbar mass of 1.5 × 3 cm in size, in the left orbit.

Tumor-to-tumor metastasis of breast carcinoma to meningioma is a rare phenomenon. It is likely underdiagnosed given the relatively high prevalence and comorbidity of these two primary tumor types, the lack of standardized methodologies for its diagnosis, and the tendency to obfuscate this lesion with simple meningioma or cerebral metastasis of breast carcinoma. Careful histopathologic study of ...
full textGastric metastasis from breast carcinoma
Although the use of newer therapies in patients affected by breast cancer has led to an increase in median survival rates, it has also given rise to an increased risk of developing metastases, often after a prolonged diseasefree interval varying from 2 to 104 months 1 . Organs most commonly affected by secondary localization (bones, lungs and pleura, liver and central nervous system) are extra-...
