Abstract:
Identifying choriocarcinoma in breast tissue is a rare phenomenon. This report describes an unusual case of metastatic choriocarcinoma presenting as a breast mass and coexisting with an intraductal breast carcinoma. This is the first documented case of a choriocarcinoma metastatic to the breast that has responded to chemotherapy.
