Breast Hamartoma.

Breast hamartoma has a low incidence (0.1-07%). It is a benign lesion of uncertain origin. The main concern about hamartoma is that it can present as either palpable breast lump or apparent breast mass on mammographic examination, and this naturally leads to follow up investigations to rule out possible breast malignancy. Here is a case of a clinically suspected fibroadenoma in a 35 year old female. The histopathological examination proved it to be a hamartoma.
