Abstract

OBJECTIVE. We describe the mammographic appearance of axillary lymph node calcification in three patients with metastatic ovarian carcinoma. CONCLUSION. Axillary lymph node calcification may be identified mammographically in patients with metastatic ovarian carcinoma and may be evidence of unsuspected metastatic disease. The pattern of calcification differs from that seen with metastatic breast carcinoma.
