Metastatic lobular breast carcinoma to the pancreas: a case report. 2018

Andrew Zammit, and Daniel James, and Petrus Henk Van Rooyen
Department of General Surgery, Hervey Bay Hospital, Queensland, Australia.

We report a case of a 72-year-old female, with an extensive breast cancer history, who presented with abdominal pain to her general practitioner. Cross-sectional imaging demonstrated a lesion in the head of pancreas, which was not amenable to curative resection. Percutaneous biopsy was obtained, which demonstrated metastatic lobular breast cancer. This rare case highlights how previous medical histories may assist in final pathological diagnosis.
