Cancer spreading from the breast - ovaries- now liver
by tarag, Mar 17, 2008 08:47PM
My aunt had breast cancer 23 yrs ago - and 2 yrs ago we found out she had ovarian cancer and now the doctors have found lesions on her liver. She has been through Chemo 4 times. My mom (aunts sister) and 3 out of 6 sister and the mom (my grandma) have all had breast cancer. Where can I find information pertaining to cancer that has spread from the breast to the ovaries and now lesions on the liver? any information would be helpful and greatly appreciated. As we are looking for some insight

Are there any specific questions that you have? You could look up breast cancer metastasis or talk to your doctor about any queries or doubts that you have or post us.
The ovarian cancer would not be due to breast metastasis most probably.
Breast cancer can spread to other parts of the body via blood vessels or the lymphatic system. So it can spread to the lungs, pleura, liver, brain, and most commonly to the bones.
