RESUMO
Vascular tumors of the breast are rare, but benign hemangiomas are the most common type. Capillary hemangiomas are a subset of benign vascular tumors that involve smaller vessel sizes. They are difficult to diagnose with mammography and ultrasound, as they lack pathognomonic features and are frequently not seen. MRI is the most sensitive imaging tool. The lesions appear similar to angiosarcoma or ductal carcinoma in situ on imaging, which further complicates the diagnosis. A biopsy of the lesions is required for a definitive diagnosis. In this report, a 49-year-old female with newly diagnosed breast cancer is incidentally found to have a capillary hemangioma on staging breast MRI that was confirmed with a biopsy and excised along with the primary breast cancer with a partial mastectomy. The imaging findings of breast hemangioma on mammography, ultrasound, and MRI are also reviewed and described in this report.
