Cavernous hemangioma of breast: A case report

Abstract

Cavernous hemangioma of the breast is a rare benign vascular tumor, whose clinical diagnosis is challenging. We describe a case of cavernous hemangioma in an 81-year-old female, who presented with a history of a slow-growing lump in the left breast from the past few months. Mammography revealed a circumscribed high-density mass with microlobulated margins in the lower outer quadrant with no associated findings. Targeted sonography revealed an isoechoic heterogeneous solid mass in the subcutaneous plane with no associated vascularity on color doppler. It was assigned as BI-RADS IV B and an image-guided core biopsy was done. The histopathology report was of cavernous hemangioma. A close follow-up was advised.
