We report the case of a woman who presented with breast cancer metastases to the femur causing pathologic fracture of the femoral neck requiring surgery. She received adjuvant radiotherapy to the femur at that time that did not include the surgical scar tract. Almost four years after her surgery she presented with biopsy proven skin recurrence of breast cancer on the skin overlying her incision from her femoral surgery.  Further imaging confirmed significant soft-tissue disease involving the underlying surgical scar tract. This case provides important information about the possibility of surgical scar recurrence after surgery for bone metastases which could indicate the need to include the area of the surgical scar tract and the entire prosthetic material in the post-operative radiotherapy volume.
