Abstract

Cavernous hemangioma of the breast is a benign vascular tumor. It is asymptomatic clinically and, in most cases, is incidentally detected during a histological examination held in order to verify a newly diagnosed breast neoplasm. Due to the lack of pathognomonic features, this tumor is difficult to identify using the multimodal imaging. Therefore, the differential diagnostic series should include both benign neoplasms, such as fibroadenoma, and malignant lesions, particularly ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and NST breast cancer.

This clinical observation aims to determine the characteristic radiologic features of cavernous hemangioma of the breast by comparing histological data with mammographic and ultrasound findings.
