AB Benign and primary malignant breast tumors are quite common, but secondary tumors in the breast from metastatic malignancies are rare. Nevertheless, metastasis to the breast must be considered in any patient with a known primary malignant tumor history who presents with a breast lump. We report a case of a premenopausal woman diagnosed with a metastatic melanoma in her breast.
