Abstract
Background: Metastases to the breast from extramammary tumours are uncommon, and
metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the breast is extremely rare. We report a metastasis to the
breast from a renal primary with the radiological and histopathological features.
Case presentation: An 81-year-old lady was seen in the breast clinic for a right breast mass after sustaining a fall. Clinical examination and investigations revealed a metastatic cancer from a renal primary. She received surgical treatment only and is under regular follow-up in the oncology clinic.
Conclusion: The treatment strategy for metastatic breast diseases is based on a proper
assessment of such cases by surgeons, radiologists and histopathologists
