ABSTRACT
Breast hamartoma is a relatively rare pathology, composed of various amount of mammary glandular, fatty and fibrous tissue. Here, we report MR findings of two cases of hamartomas; one of them was incidentally found in her left breast during preoperative MRI in a woman with right breast cancer, and the other was presented as a large palpable mass. Both of them were confirmed by surgical excision. Breast hamartoma shows a well-defined mass with mixed signal intensity on T2-weighted image MRI and a little or focal enhancement on contrast-enhanced MRI.
