Abstract

Metastatic tumors to the breast from extramammary malignancies are unusual. We present 3 cases of such lesions. Two cases were in females with one primary each from the ovary and lung, and one in a male with primary lung carcinoma. The incidence, pathology and radiographic findings of such metastatic lesions are reviewed.
