Myoid hamartoma of the breast: a case report

Abstract

Breast hamartoma is an uncommon mass lesion made up of varying proportions of normal breast tissues. It involves between 0.7% to 5.0% of all benign breast tumors. A very uncommon variation of mammary hamartoma called myoid hamartoma is distinguished by the presence of smooth muscle cells in the stroma. We present a case of a myoid hamartoma of the breast with literature review.
