Abstract

In this case report, a woman of 55 years suddenly developed foot pain and swelling 13 years after treatment for breast cancer. X-ray was found to be normal, and the symptoms were in three months interpreted as ligamentous sprains. Due to persistent pain and functional impairment together with a renewed X-ray suspicious for malignancy, an MRI scan was performed and signs of malignancy were confirmed. A biopsy from talus showed metastasis from a breast carcinoma, and the patient was treated with an amputation.
