Abstract:
Breast cancer metastasis to stomach occurs rarely and generally derives from infiltrating lobular carcinoma rather than infiltrating ductal carcinoma. We report a case of metachronous bilateral breast infiltrating lobular carcinoma metastasis to stomach in a 46-year-old female, who experienced epigastric pain, intermittent vomiting and weight loss for the duration of four months. Upper GI endoscopy done showed a gastric fundal mass and a biopsy taken. Histopathological examination of a biopsy specimen revealed metastatic lobular carcinoma.
