O envolvimento metastático do trato gastrointestinal é relativamente infreqüente. Tumores malignos de mama, entretanto, podem muito raramente produzir metástases para o intestino. Relatamos aqui o caso de uma paciente com quadro clínico compatível com o de um abdômen agudo obstrutivo submetida a laparotomia exploradora com colectomia. O exame anátomo-patológico da peça cirúrgica revelou tratar-se de um carcinoma metastático, sendo que a história clínica da paciente indicava o tratamento cirúrgico prévio de um carcinoma lobular de mama. Nossa revisão da literatura demonstrou que o carcinoma lobular, dentre as neoplasias malignas da mama, é o que mais freqüentemente leva ao comprometimento metastático do intestino, sendo o estômago o local mais afetado. Como a disseminação sistêmica é comum nestes casos, o tratamento conservador, quando possível, é o mais indicado, sendo a cirurgia reservada para as complicações. Gastrointestinal manifestations of breast cancer are not commom. We report a case of a female patient who was submitted to a laparotomy with clinical and radiological signs of large bowell obstruction. Her clinical hitory showed that she was treated for breast cancer several years before. Pathology indicated that a metastatic carcinoma within the bowell wall was the cause of the obstruction. Previous reports described the lobular carcinoma of the breast as the most commom type of breast cancer to produce bowell metastases. The stomach is described as the most frequent site of this metastatic dissemination. Since sistemic disease is common within these patients, surgical ressection is indicated only in the presence of complications like obstruction or bleeding
