["Rare localisation" of bone metastases by patients with primary mamma carcinoma (author's transl)].

Authors report on bone metastases by 8 female patients with mamma carcinoma rarely occurring according to the literature. By the first patient a metastasis to the zygomatic bone and to the maxilla, by a second to the corpus mandibuale, by a third to the ascending branch of mandibula was encountered. The fourth patient showed metastasis at the distal end of radius and in the carpal bones, the fifth in the midthird part of tibial diaphysis, the sixth in the I, and II, cuneiform bone, the seventh in the carpal and metacarpal, tarsal and metatarsal bones respectively, the eighth in the calcaneus. In all the above cases previously metastases to other bones (as spine, pelvis etc.) have been noted. This means that in course of the disease the metastases of "rare localisation" appear in a later period.
