Small bowel obstruction from metastatic breast cancer masquerading as an obstructed incisional hernia.

Small bowel metastatic disease from primary breast cancer is rare. With this case report we illustrate a distinctly rare presentation of small bowel metastatic disease from breast cancer masquerading as an obstructed incisional hernia. This case is also an example of small bowel metastasis from an invasive ductal primary breast carcinoma as opposed to the more common pattern of small bowel metastasis from lobular carcinoma.
