Description

The case of an eleven-month-old girl with a juvenile fibroadenoma is reported. Enlargement of her right breast was noted since she was seven months old. On initial presentation to our hospital at ten months old, palpation revealed firm, well mobile, and non-tender mass without erythema in her right breast. The size of the tumor was 5cm in diameter. Fine needle aspiration cytology demonstrated class II, fibroadenoma. The patient underwent resection of the tumor at eleven months old through an inframammary incision sparing normal breast tissue, and the size of the tumor by palpation was 6cm in diameter. Histologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of juvenile fibroadenoma, and MIB-1 labeling index in stromal cells showed approximately 10%. At 18 months after operation, the patient is symptom-free and has had no recurrence.
