摘要：
Breast cancer metastasis to the brain stem is uncommon. Because of the rarity of the condition, the clinical course of such patients is not known. The case of a 41-year-old woman with advanced-stage carcinoma of the breast involving the medulla oblongata is presented and the literature concerning management, including patient outcome, is reviewed.
