Abstract
Spontaneous infarction is an uncommon complication of fibroadenoma. Lack of knowledge of this rare entity may lead to an erroneous diagnosis of inflammatory lesion or malignancy on fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). We describe two cases of fibroadenoma with spontaneous infarction; one in a 20-year-old unmarried female while the other was a 35-year-old married female. Both patients presented with a history of sudden increase in size and pain for which they sought medical help. FNAC followed by histopathology was done. High index of suspicion would help cytopathologists to avoid misdiagnosis.
