RESUMO
Adenomyoepithelioma (AME) of breast is a low grade malignant biphasic tumour, usually seen in elderly women as a firm, well circumscribed tumour having both glandular and myoepithelial cells. The cells may show atypical features. The tumour may harbour foci of carcinoma which may be epithelial type, myoepithelial type, both or of metaplastic cells. The behaviour is hard to predict as it can be treated by local excision, recurrence is known or it can present with distant metastasis and hence the prognosis. We present a case of 50-year-old women who presented with right iliac bone lytic lesion diagnosed as metastatic deposits. Past history revealed that patient was diagnosed and treated for AME of right breast seven years back. The metastatic deposits also showed features of adenomyoepithelioma. Hence, a diagnosis of malignant AME deposits in right iliac bone was made.
