Fibroadenolipoma of breast - A rare case report
Journal Title: International Archives of Integrated Medicine - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Fibroadenolipoma is a solid, rare benign tumor. It is a circumscribed lesion composed of fat and other breast tissues which may be normal or which may show various changes. The reported incidence of breast hamartomas is 0.7% of all benign breast tumors in females [1]. Clinical findings resemble fibroadenoma and if there is a palpable mass, the patients may receive an immediate diagnosis. Ductal hyperplasia, apocrine metaplasia, calcification and adenosis may occur within the hamartoma, with rarer instances of lobular or ductal intraepithelial neoplasms.
