Adenosis Tumor of the Breast: A Case Report
Abstract
- Adenosis tumor is a ra re tumor of the breast and primarily consists of adenosis.
Authors report a case of surgically proved adenosis tumor in a 31-year-old
woman. Mammogram showed a Iobulated, well-circumscribed mass with several
surrounding radiolucent halos. In the center of the mass several linear radiolucent
densities were seen with the appearance of a conglomerated well-circumscribed
mass such as fibroadenoma. These linear radiolucent densities
were consistent with the fat between the fibrous sclerosis in pathologic specimen.
Ultrasonogram showed a well-circumscribed mass with homogeneous low
echogenicity, partial posterior enhancement, and bilateral acoustic shadowings.
