Bone Mets from breast cancer is one of the more manageable of any form of metastises. If this is a tumor completely outside the bone structure I would think it could be treated much the same as another tumor within the breast tissue itself in that it could be removed along with additional systemic treatment. Best wishes for an easy solution ....
