Abstract
Angiolipoma of the breast is a rare benign fatty tumor that can be mammographically confused with breast carcinoma. We herein report such a case presenting as a partial obscured mass with microcalcification on mammogram. Sonogram revealed an encapsulated hyperechoic nodule with homogeneous internal echo. Microscopic evaluation revealed abundant adipose tissues with evidence of proliferating vessels and intravascular hyaline thrombi. To our knowledge, angiolipomas of the breast containing microcalcification secondary to intravascular thrombi had not been previously reported.
