Description

We report a case of juvenile tubular adenoma of the breast, diagnosed as breast fibroadenoma preoperatively, in a 15-year-old female. The patient was presented at our clinic because of a right breast tumor which had an easily movable tumor 25×23 mm in diameter in the AB area of the right breast on palpation. Magnetic resonance imaging study showed an enhanced tumor with smooth surface. Results of aspiration biopsy cytology suggested fibroadenoma. Because the tumor was growing, we excised it under local anesthesia. The histopathological diagnosis was tubular adenoma, revealing monotonous glandular formation.<br>Tubular adenoma of the breast is a rare benign epithelial tumor of the breast. Only three cases, including our case, involved juvenile women aged 15 years or less, accounting for about 6.7% of all cases.
