Abstract

We present the case of a 29‐year‐old woman with a medulloblastoma of the cerebellum who developed a breast mass during the course of her disease. Core biopsy of the breast lesion revealed a metastatic medulloblastoma. Development of metastasis to the breast from medulloblastoma is very rare and the prognosis for such patients is poor. It is important to distinguish primary breast cancer from metastasis to the breast, because the therapeutic options as well as the prognosis are very different. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
