We describe a patient with breast cancer metastatic to ovarian thecoma. This finding, to the best of our knowledge, has yet to be reported in literature regardless of the fact that there are many gynecological neoplastic associations. Our hypothesis is that this unusual finding is not accidental, but rather benign lesions may be natural resting sites for metastatic disease. An autopsy series is required to elucidate this incidence.
