Abstract

Although ovarian cancer usually presents in advanced stages; metastasis of ovarian cancer to the breast (MOCB) is a very rare event. It accounts for only 0.03–0.6% of all breast cancers. As of now, around 120 cases of MOCB have been reported in the literature. It is usually detected within two years from the initial diagnosis of primary ovarian cancer. MOCB is a cause of both diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas for choosing an adequate systemic therapy over unnecessary surgeries. The case we confronted caused a similar kind of perplex ion and is a novel one as it presented as a synchronous disease.
