Fibroadenoma of the breast is a common, benign condition. It is common among women of child-bearing age. A conservative approach for these benign tumors is the standard of care since the prevalence of breast cancer arising from a fibroadenoma is very low (0.02%). Fibroadenomas can be followed over time, rather than excised. Carcinoma-in-situ and invasive carcinoma have both been reported to ari...

Fibroadenoma is the most common breast tumor in adolescent and young women. Fibroadenomas that consist of sclerosing adenosis, papillary apocrine metaplasia, epithelial calcifications, and/or cysts greater than 3 mm are considered as complex fibroadenoma. The relative risk of developing breast cancer in patients with complex fibroadenoma is increased, compared to women with noncomplex fibroaden...

We report the case of a 38-year-old Asian, Indian female with capillary hemangioma breast in coexistence with the commonly occurring fibroadenoma. Clinical examination of the breast revealed a 4 cm diameter lump. Mammography revealed a well defined slightly hypoechoic lesion with smooth contours. A lumpectomy was performed. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of a completely encapsulated fib...

BACKGROUND Fibroadenoma 5 cm or more is called giant fibroadenoma. Giant fibroadenoma can distort the shape of breast and causes asymmetry, so it should be excised. There are several techniques for excision of giant fibroadenoma. In our technique we remove them through cosmetically acceptable circumareolar incision to maintain the shape and symmetry of breast. The objectives were to assess the ...

abstract background breast carcinoma is uncommon in women under 25 and very rare in less than 20 years old. only few cases of infiltrating breast carcinoma have been reported and among them there was no report of medullary subtype. the purpose of this report is to determine clinical, histopathological and sonographic findings of large mass in breast of young female patient that diagnosed as med...

INTRODUCTION Fibroadenoma is the most common benign tumor of the female breast with the highest incidence before age 30. Fibroadenoma may be associated with fibrocystic changes, proliferative epithelial changes, and extremely rarely, with non-invasive and invasive cancer. CASE PRESENTATION We present a rare case of a 39 years old female with invasive ductal carcinoma arising within fibroadeno...

Ectopic breast tissue is defined as glands located outside of the breast. Ectopic breast tissue should be excised because it may develop benign (fibroadenoma) or malignant pathologic processes. Less than forty cases of fibroadenomas have been reported in the literature. Although lactation changes can occur, lactating adenoma in the vulva are extremely rare. Only four cases have been reported. W...

Juvenile fibroadenoma is a common cause of breast masses seen in adolescents and young women. Giant juvenile fibroadenomas are usually single and unilateral. The etiology is thought to be due to increased levels of estrogen during adolescence, although it is not yet fully understood. Treatment options range from simple excision to sub-cutaneous mastectomy according to the size of the lesion. Th...
