We present a rare case of lung metastasis from a malignant adenomyoepithelioma of the breast. A 44-year-old woman was surgically treated in 2008 for a malignant adenomyoepithelioma of the breast. Shortly after, two lung nodules were detected through a CT scan, and a diagnosis of malignant adenomyoepithelioma was rendered.
