Primary epidermoid carcinoma (PEC) also known as squamous cell carcinoma of the breast is a rare tumor accounting for 0.1% to 2% of all breast cancers. It is a metaplastic carcinoma; its histogenesis and prognosis are controversial as well as its clinical and mammographic appearances which are not characteristic compared to other cancers.

The purpose of this study is to report the clinical and evolutionary features of a new case of PEC and to conduct a literature review.
