Abstract
Fibromatosis of the breast is an uncommon disease, most often appearing as an aggressive lesion mimicking carcinoma on mammography. We describe, in an asymptomatic 40-year-old woman, an unusual imaging appearance of fibromato sis of the breast mimicking a benign lesion at mammographic and sonographic studies.
