Abstract:
Breast cancer is a fatal tumor in women; accounting for 15% of deaths from cancer . Distant metastases in breast cancer may spread to almost any region of the body. Typically, metastases to regional lymph nodes are observed in nearly one-third of patients with cancer in the breast, colon, uterus, oral cavity, and pharynx. In women, the commonest metastatic malignancies are from primary cancers in the breasts, kidneys, colorectal region, genital organs and thyroid glands. We are presenting a case report of a 64-year-old female who was diagnosed a case of breast carcinoma and presented with metastasis to the mandible which was confirmed by histopathology
