We report a case of carcinoma originating in the rectum that, during the disease course, presented metastasis in both mammary glands. Metastases to the breast are rare, and among those observed with greatest frequency are lymphoma-related infiltration, melanoma, and sarcomas. The presence of metastasis of rectal carcinoma in the breast is an unusual event.
