Metastatic Ovarian Cancer Presenting as Inflammatory Breast Cancer: A Case Report

Metastatic ovarian cancer to the breast is a rare presentation, with limited cases reported worldwide. Common sites for distant metastasis in ovarian cancer are to the liver, lung, and pleura [Dauplat et al. Cancer. 1987 Oct 1;60(7):1561-6]. Usually, such cases predict poor prognosis with troublesome management. We present one challenging case of a 54-year-old female patient with recurrent clear cell ovarian cancer, presenting with right breast mass of primary versus secondary origin, progressing into inflammatory breast cancer picture. Our report aims to shed light on the value of early suspicion and low threshold of detecting secondary breast masses of ovarian cancer origin.
