Although the observation of breast vascular tumors is rare, the most common tumor is hemangıoma in the benign group, and these tumors are observed incidentally in lumpectomy or mastectomy specimens during histological examinations. They are classified into capillary, cavernous, and venous hemangıomas. Cavernous hemangıoma is the most common subtype. Cavernous hemangıomas are benign vascular tumors, which malformatıon from mature blood vessels. Hemangıomas ın the benıgn group may show a suspicion of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in mammographic analysis. Ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance ımagıng (MRI) are the most useful imaging methods for analyzing the structure of breast vessels. In this case, a 54-year-old female who have any complaint. Scanning mammography (MG) detected the tumor, but physıcal examınatıon and US could not identify the mass. According to the MG analysis, the lesion was evaluated as BIRADS 4b, and the patient underwent excisional biopsy after wire localization. Pathological analysis revealed cavernous hemangıoma.
Fibroadenomas are the most common benign breast lesions in adolescent and young women. It is most frequently observed in the 3rd decade. Although it is considered benign, evidence of malignant transformation is available. Cancer development may be from ground of fibroadenoma or near breast tissue. A case of a fibroadenoma coexisting with an invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast in a 31-year-old female is presented. The patient presented with the chief complaint of having a palpable mass in her right breast for the last 10 years. Mammography revealed a mass with microcalcifications. Core biopsy was performed, and the results indicated an invasive carcinoma. Breast-conserving surgery with sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed. The pathological features revealed a fibroadenoma coexisting with an invasive ductal carcinoma. This case suggests that clinicians and radiologists should always pay attention to the associated malignant imaging characteristics whenever a mass was followed up as fibroadenoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
