Primary bilateral synchronous breast carcinomas are defined as those which have different histomorphological types of cancer in both breast and both appear simultaneously or few months apart. Invasive carcinoma, No Special Subtype (IC-NST) constitutes the most common variant of breast carcinoma. Our case was an elderly lady presenting with bilateral breast lumps and no family history of breast cancer. Histopathology revealed malignancy of both breast with pure mucinous type on one side and invasive carcinoma (NST) on the other side. Primary synchronous breast carcinoma though a rare finding draws our attention to the more important issue of bilateral breast examination in all breast carcinoma cases.
