Background: Morocco is considered an endemic country to tuberculosis and breast cancer as they both are considered major health issues. Their coexistence is scarce and makes diagnosis exacting since symptoms, clinical and imaging investigations are non-specific of neither of these two pathologies.
Case report: We hereby present one of the rare cases exhibiting the coexistence of a metastatic breast carcinoma in a patient with multisystemic tuberculosis.
Conclusion: Although clinical and imaging is not specific, histopathology bestows a definitive diagnosis. An astute clinical judgement is required to ensure that the diagnosis is made as early as possible so that treatment can be initiated promptly.
