| Summary: | Metaplastic breast carcinoma is rare and may present as a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer. In this case report of metastatic metaplastic breast carcinoma with osteosarcomatous differentiation in a female patient previously treated for invasive ductal carcinoma, we describe the new presentation of a palpable mass with associated calcifications on imaging near the site of prior partial mastectomy. This article will detail the clinical presentation, imaging findings, histopathology, and clinical course following treatment of our case. Knowledge of the clinical and imaging presentation of this rare subtype, which can present with benign features on mammography and ultrasound, can facilitate timely diagnosis as treatment paradigms evolve.
