Description

A 65 year old female presenting with abdominal pain and imaging findings of pneumoperitoneum was brought to the operating room and found to have a retroperitoneal mass and omental caking secondary to metastatic breast lobular carcinoma. Intra abdominal metastasis is rare however lobular carcinoma is more likely to spread here than other types of breast cancer. This is the first case of pneumoperitoneum from metastatic lobular carcinoma in the literature.
