چکیده
Intracystic papillary breast carcinoma is a rare form of non-invasive carcinoma with an excellent prognosis. It accounts for less than 0.5% of breast cancers. We report the case of a 60 year old man presenting with a painless cystic lump in the left breast. Ultrasonography showed a cystic lesion and aspiration revealed benign fibrocystic lesion. Excisional biopsy was necessary to confirm the diagnosis and also indicated that local treatment was adequate.
