Abstract

Metastases from carcinoma of the breast may involve one or both ureters, and may be a clinically important phenomenon. Two cases are presented and the autopsy experience with 181 cases of metastatic breast carcinoma is reviewed. Ureteral involvement was demonstrated in 8.3% of the cases. Bilateral metastases were common.
