ABSTRACT

This case report details the rare instance of metastatic spread of cutaneous malignant melanoma to the breast in a 50-year-old female. The patient presented with a palpable axillary mass confirmed to be metastasis despite excision and closure of the primary malignancy. The mass seen in clinical and radiological presentations presented with features of complicated differentiation from a primary breast tumor. Biopsy and staining with immunohistochemical markers S100 and Sox10 played a critical role in confirming the melanocytic origin of this metastatic lesion. Breast metastases are associated with poor prognosis, and this case emphasizes the importance of in-depth evaluations for patients with a history of malignant melanoma and the need for ongoing clinical awareness in this field.
