“…Very rarely, it has also been reported that hamartomas develop into carcinoma (7). While an invasive lobular carcinoma is reported to develop in some publications, development of ductal carcinoma is the most frequently reported (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21). Thus, once the diagnosis is established, an excision should be performed (Figure 1-3).…”

Objective: Breast hamartomas are benign breast tumors, which are observed very rarely. We aimed to share our surgical approaches and a comparison of preoperative and postoperative pathology results of patients applying to breast polyclinics. Materials and Methods:Out of 32.000 patients approximately, we reviewed data of 12 patients with the diagnosis of breast hamartoma retrospectively, who had applied to the breast polyclinic between dates of March 2007 and October 2012.Results: All patients were female and their average age was 35 (17-58 years). Four of the hamartomas were detected in the right breast, and eight in the left breast. The average diameter of lesions was 7.3 cm (3-21cm). The diameter in our three cases was above 10 cm, and they were evaluated as giant hamartomas. All our cases underwent a fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) or a core biopsy preoperatively. When the reports of preoperative biopsies performed on patients who had applied due to a palpable mass and the postoperative pathology reports were compared, it was detected that they showed a substantial correlation. Conclusion:Hamartomas are benign tumors of the breast. The rate of preoperative diagnosis is high when physical examination, imaging and histopathology approaches are taken in combination. Although very rare, a surgical excision should be performed due to the malignant change in tumors. Hamartomların dördü sağ memede sekizi sol memede saptandı. Lezyonların ortalama çapı 7,3 cm idi (min-maks; 3-21). Üç olguda lezyon çapı 10 cm üzerinde olup bu olgular dev hamartom olarak değerlendirildi. Olgularımı-zın hepsine preoperatif ince iğne aspirasyon biyopsisi (İİAB) veya kor biyopsi yapıldı. Ele gelen kitle ile başvuran hastalara yapılan preoperatif biyopsi ile postoperatif patoloji raporları karşılaştırıldığında büyük oranda korelasyon gösterdikleri tespit edildi.Sonuç: Hamartomlar memenin iyi huylu tümörleridir. Fizik muayene, gö-rüntüleme ve histopatolojinin birlikte ele alınmasıyla preoperatif tanı konma oranı yüksektir. Çok nadir de olsa malign değişim göstermesi sebebiyle cerrahi eksizyon yapılmalıdır.

“…Con frecuencia es un hallazgo en la mamografía y se cree que su verdadera incidencia es probablemente superior a la recogida en la literatura.

ResumenEl hamartoma gigante de la mama es una entidad clínico-patológica inusual que tiende a confundirse con otros tumores. A pesar del avance en las técnicas diagnósticas, su diagnóstico clínico es difícil y normalmente solo se confirma cuando se analiza toda la pieza de resección. El diagnóstico diferencial debe incluir entidades como el fibroadenoma, lipoma, tumor phyllodes y diversos tipos de carcinomas.Presentamos 2 casos de hamartoma gigante de mama en mujeres de edad media, de los cuales uno fue tratado mediante mastectomía conservadora de complejo pezón-areola y reconstrucción con prótesis y el otro con biopsia escisional y remodelación con patrón de pexia mamaria.Palabras clave Hamartoma mamario, Tumores mamarios. Nivel de evidencia científica V AbstractGiant hamartoma of the breast is an unusual clinicopathologic entity that tends to be mistaken with other tumours. Its clinical diagnosis is extremely difficult and, despite of the radiologic improvements, most of them are suspected and confirmed only when all specimen is studied. Its differential diagnosis includes fibroadenoma, lipoma, phyllodes tumour and various carcinomas.We report 2 cases of giant hamartoma of the breast in middle age female patients, with surgical approach of the tumor by nipple-areola sparing mastectomy and correction of the resultant breast deformity by prosthetic reconstruction and other with excisional biopsy with mastopexy.
