Abstract
Oral malignant metastases are a relatively rare finding considering the incidence of metastatic tumors in the body. Oral cavity is a rare site of metastasis from the breast. Because of their rarity and atypical clinical and radiographic appearance, metastatic lesions are considered a diagnostic challenge. We describe case report of an operated case of infiltrating ductal carcinoma of breast metastasizing to retromolar trigone region.
