Breast metastases from uterine cancer – literature review

Uterine cancer represents a common gynecological malignancy affecting women worldwide which can lead to the apparition of distant metastases through different patterns of spread such as direct contiguity, peritoneal, lymphatic or hematogenous route. When it comes to the hematogenous pattern of spread, the most commonly encountered viscera in which metastatic lesions can be found are represented by liver and lung. Meanwhile, breast metastases from uterine cancer represents a very scarce event, only few cases being reported so far. The aim of the current study is to review the case reports published so far on this issue.
