Grossly, the lesions were multi-cystic with colloidal appearances. Histologically, the lesions consisted of multiple cysts filled with colloid, these cysts were lined with tubular, cuboidal or columnar epithelium. There were superimposed papillary epithelial hyperplasia in three cases and atypical ductal hyperplasia in one. Extravasated mucinous lakes were seen in the stroma, but without cellular component.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Mucocele-like lesions of the breast is a group of mostly benign disease, and the differential diagnosis should include mucinous carcinoma.</p>
