Abstract

Hamartomas by definition are masses of disorganised mature tissue indigenous to the particular site. They are seen in anatomical sites like skin, spleen and lungs where the latter is the most common site. Breast hamartomas are benign lesions not that commonly encountered in clinical practice. It is also synonymously known by other terms like adenolipoma. Terms like fibroadenolipoma and adenolipofibroma which were previously used are not recommended by the WHO. Hamartomas of the breast are composed of fibrous glandular or fat tissue. Breast hamartomas are rare in females and rarest in males. We report 4 cases of breast hamartomas one of which was myoid hamartoma in 38-year-old male and hamartoma with PASH (pseudoaangiomatous stromal hyperplasia) in a 32 year old female.
