Metastatic Melanoma in the Breast with unknown Primary
Keyword(s):
Secondary in the breast is a very rare condition but may occur usually from contralateral breast and from others like lymphoma, melanoma, ovarian tumors, and pulmonary malignancies and malignancies of the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract. Among the primary diseases, melanoma is notorious and unpredictable in its metastatic potentiality and organ of dissemination. There are few reported cases with metastatic melanoma in the breast. We report a case of metastatic deposits in the breasts of a 45year-old lady who presented with bilateral breast lumps with axillary lymphadenopathy having no primary site of melanoma.
