[A case of bilateral metastatic breast carcinoma from gastric carcinoma].
The patient was a 48-year-old woman who had undergone radical surgery for gastric carcinoma in 1981. Seventeen months after the operation, recurrence of gastric carcinoma at the anastomotic stoma was found, and total gastrectomy was performed. Fourteen months after the second operation, she was revealed to have bilateral breast tumors and underwent exploratory excision. Histological examination suggested primary malignant tumor of the breast. Bilateral standard radical mastectomy was done seven days after the excision. Final histological examination revealed metastatic breast cancer originating from the stomach. She died from general metastasis seven months after the radical mastectomy in spite of adjuvant immunochemotherapy.
