CHONDROLIPOMA OF THE BREAST
Journal Title: Stanley Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Chondrolipomatous tumours are rare benign neoplasms composed of adipose and cartilage tissue. Only few cases have been reported in the literature. Physical examination, ultrasound and mammography usually reveals a benign tumour. Histopathological examination is necessary in providing an exact diagnosis. We describe an elderly patient with chondrolipomatous tumour of the breast which was suspected to be an inflammatory or malignant tumour clinically and radiologically.
