Fibroadenoma is the most commonly diagnosed benign tumour in adolescents and young women but spontaneous infarction in fibroadenoma is rarely seen. We report here a case of spontaneously infracted fibroadenoma in a 20 year old unmarried female without history of trauma or previous fine needle aspiration. It is important to recognize this entity because microscopic findings in an infarct are inf...

Fibroadenoma is commonest breast lump constituting about 50% of all breast pathologies in young females. About 2-4% of the fibroadenomas more than 5 cm in size or 500 gm in weight and are called giant fibroadenomas [1]. The axillary ectopic breast tissue is common in women as 95% of women are having it [2]. The clinical presentation is during lactation when this tissue gets enlarged commonly ca...

UNLABELLED A case of a 45 year-old woman who presented with a perianal fistula was reported. Histologically, the excised lesion showed features of apocrine fibroadenoma. In addition, the lesion had both glandular and stromal growth patterns and active chronic inflammation in the background. Malignant or benign counterparts of these types of lesions are widely described in literature. However fi...

Fibroadenoma of the breast is the most common benign neoplasm in young women who present with a palpable, movable mass. Malignancy inside fibroadenomas is rare, with reported rates ranging from 0.002% to 0.125%. Carcinoma in situ inside a fibroadenoma is usually found incidentally when tumours are excised. Whether fibroadenoma is a risk factor for breast cancer remains controversial. Due to the...

INTRODUCTION Benign Phyllodes Tumours (PTs) are rare fibroepithelial neoplasms that resemble fibroadenoma. But unlike fibroadenoma, benign PT can recur and both stromal & epithelial components can progress to malignancy. Contrary to earlier belief that benign PT is a stromal neoplasm and possibly arises from fibroadenoma, more recent molecular studies have suggested that both stroma and epithel...

There have been several case reports and studies that retrospectively reviewed breast cancers that arose within fibroadenomas; however, none of these studies reported serial changes in radiologic features of the cancer, including findings from mammography and ultrasound (US). We report a case of breast cance...
