Discoveries (Craiova). 2023 Dec 31;11(4):e180. doi: 10.15190/d.2023.19. eCollection 2023 Oct-Dec.

Abstract

Mammary myofibroblastoma (MM) is an uncommon, benign mesenchymal neoplasm with a favourable prognosis. Its resemblance to various other benign and malignant lesions of the breast makes precise diagnosis challenging when examining biopsy samples. The rarity of mammary myofibroblastoma in India and worldwide underscores the importance of our case report, as we aim to contribute to the existing literature and expand the knowledge base of this neoplasm. Furthermore, we have delved into the diagnostic complexities associated with this lesion and highlighted the ancillary techniques employed to achieve an accurate and reliable diagnosis.
