Summary We present a case of a 59 year old female with a giant cell tumor (osteoclastoma) of the breast metastasizing to the lungs, the pleura, the thyroid gland and the myocardium. An infiltrating duct carcinoma was found at the margin of this breast tumor, but was absent from the metastases. The gross and microscopic features of the lesions are described and the literature is briefly reviewed.
