Chest wall lesions can mimic masses on mammograms and can cause diagnostic difficulty in interpretation. Here, we report a case of an axillary and retro-pectoral vascular malformation visualized on mammography in a 67-year-old patient presenting with fullness in the right axilla and right supraclavicular region. Mammography, ultrasonography (US), and computed tomography (CT) angiography of the patient were done to make the final diagnosis.
