Breast cancer (BC) is a prevalent disease, and its incidence of brain metastasis (BM) varies from5 to 30% according to the literature.We present the case of a delayed isolated cerebral metastasis in a female patient following a period of 16 years after the diagnosis and first treatment. During this time, there was no other recurrence. We also review the literature concerning central nervous systemspread and themolecular subtypes of such late tumors.
