Two cases of breast carcinoma metastatic to meningioma are described in patients 69 and 62 years old respectively. Cases were documented by radiological, histological and immunohistochemical techniques. Both meningiomas contained an invasive duct carcinoma of the breast, one of which was apocrine in nature. It is suggested that metastasis to meningioma is not so rare as it appears from the literature.
