Abstract
- Sclerosing adenosis is a benign proliferating disease which arises from a terminal ductolobular unit in the breasts. When sclerosing adenosis combines to form a mass, it is called an adenosis tumor. There are few reports about mammography, ultrasonography, and MRI findings of adenosis tumors. Also, reports on adenosis tumors until now were based on a single mass. This report is about imaging findings of scleoring adenosis showing bilateral multiple masses in breasts which have never been reported.
