Abstract
|
|
|
Breast metastases from extramammary malignancies are uncommon. Although metastatic lesions show variable radiologic features, there have been few reports of metastatic breast cancer with negative sonographic findings. Furthermore, the results of several studies have indicated a high negative predictive value when ultrasonographic and mammographic findings were normal in the setting of a palpable lump, and follow-up is recommended when the physical examination is not highly suspicious. Herein, we report a case of a 26-year-old woman with breast metastasis from a known gastric adenocarcinoma, which had negative findings without any evidence of suspicious features for malignancy on the initial mammogram and ultrasound.
