title: Adamantinoma and meningioma occurring synchronously in a patient with breast cancer: a case report.
abstract: Screening mammography of a woman with no symptoms led to the diagnosis of carcinoma of the breast, an intracranial meningioma, and adamantinoma of the right tibia. This is the first reported case of three synchronous primary tumors of different tissue origins. Biopsy is essential for diagnosing or excluding primary tumor(s) in cases of suspected metastases occurring at a limited number of sites.
