Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Adenomayoepithelioma is a rare, benign breast neoplasm characterized by the proliferation of both epithelial and myoepithelial cells within the breast lobules and ducts. Although it is most commonly seen in salivary glands and skin, Hamper reported the first case in the breast in the 1970 (1). While this benign tumor is predominantly found in older females, rare cases have been identified in young women as well. Adenomayoepithelioma is notorious for local recurrence, and malignant metastasis has been reported (2). Adenomayoepithelioma is very rare case and in 10 years period, out of 19000 cases treated in OPD , we have encountered only 2 cases of Adenomayoepithelioma, one was referred case & another one was diagnosed at our center.
