Abstract
Breast metastasis of ovarian carcinoma is rare. To date, only 39 cases have been reported in the Eng- lish-language literature so far. We are herewith reporting a primary ovarian papillary serous cyst- adenocarcinoma metastasing to breast and epsilateral supraclavicular node in a 58 year old female as the first case in our centre, located at North-East India. The purpose of reporting this case is to em- phasize the need of examining breasts in patients of ovarian cancer and the need to exercise meticu- lous care to exclude second primary at breast from possible secondaries at breast from ovarian can- cer.
