Breast Metastasis in a Patient with Primary Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common primary carcinoma of the liver, that metastasises most commonly to lungs, lymph nodes, bones and adrenal glands. We report a case of a 70 years old female, with a left breast metastasis from hepatocellular carcinoma, along with hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence in the liver, that underwent a left mastectomy. The pathological report confirmed the metastasis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second study reporting a breast metastasis from primary hepatocellular carcinoma.
