Abstract
Metastatic disease presenting in the mammary gland from gynecologic malignancies is a rare occurrence. A case of metastatic adenosquamous carcinoma of the cervix presenting as an inflammatory breast lesion is reported. Metastases within the breast have distinct clinical, radiographic, and histologic features and should be suspected in a patient with a breast mass and a known extramammary primary. As with other distant metastases of cervical cancer, mammary gland involvement portends a poor prognosis.Entities:
