title: Breast metastasis from low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma after a 17-year period.
abstract: Metastases to the breast are rare with an incidence of 0.5-3% of patients with extramammary carcinomas. We report a unique case of an endometrial stromal sarcoma metastasizing to the breast after a 17-year-period. Mammographic and ultrasonographic findings with histopathological correlation are described.
