Summary

Metastatic breast cancer affecting the gastrointestinal tract except from the liver is very rare, however, some case reports can be found in literature, autopsy series and several retrospective studies focusing on this issue. In our surgery department we have also documented a case report of metastatic breast cancer manifesting as an obstructive tumor of small intestine.

Key words:
breast cancer – gastrointestinal extrahepatic metastasis – obstructive ileus
