Breast carcinoma with pathological hip fracture

Discussion:

Right breast biopsy:  High-grade infiltrating duct carcinoma.

'Hunt the primary' is not an infrequent request for CT of the chest, abdomen and pelvis.  In this case due to a pathological hip fracture.

Perhaps the fact a radiologist was the first person to notice the huge breast primary with overlying skin thickening is a little depressing (it should be obvious on physical examination).
