Breast cancer (BC) is the foremost cause of mortality associated to female cancer among the world. Fibroadenomas are one of the most common benign breast diseases, Radiologically, broadenomas appear as a slightly homogenous, lobulated, isoechoic or hypoechoic solid mass. The objective of the study is to present the broadenoma characteristics observed at Mediclinic city hospital, Dubai, UAE. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective observational cross-sectional study to identify the characteristics of broadenoma with total of 116 patients from 2014 to 2019. All 116 cases were females, and diagnosed with broadenoma between the ages of 15 to 60 with a Bi-RADS score of 3 to 5. Patients were followed up till 6 months. 28 (20.74 %) of the broadenomas were stable sized, size growth observed in 2 (1.48 %), size growth stabilised after 6 months in 2 (1.48 %), 74 (54.81 %) broadenomas were surgically excised. Our study reported Complex broadenoma and Complex broadenoma patients with complex features like atypical hyperplasia, Atypical lobular hyperplasia enhances the risk of causing breast cancer. Additionally, study has demonstrated that, surgical removal of complex broadenomas and broadenomas with complex features is the best way to reduce the risk of carcinoma
