Abstract

Breast metastasis from other solid tumors are infrequent, and cervical cancer is the extermely rare primary site. We describe a case of 65 years old women with stage IV cervical squamous cell carcinoma. After three cycles of the first line chemotherapy, she developed breast metastasis mimicking the primary breast cancer. Histopathological examination of the breast trucut biopsy performed and less differantieted epidermoid carcinoma was deteremined. Differential diagnosis from primary breast cancer is crtical to decide most appropriate treatment especially in patients with previous cancer history.
