Mammary myofibroblastoma is a rare benign pathology of the breast.
General
Note:
- In extra-mammary sites the tumour is known as a mammary-type myofibroblastoma may immunohistochemically and histomorphologically overlap with spindle cell lipoma.[3]
Microscopic
Features:[4]
- Well-circumscribed lesion.
- Spindle cells without nuclear atypia arranged in fascicles.
- Interspersed thick bundles of collagen.
Notes:
- No calcifications.
- No necrosis.
- No hemorrhage.
DDx:
- Metaplastic breast carcinoma.
- Fibromatosis.
- Leiomyoma of the breast.
- Nodular fasciitis.
- Phyllodes tumour.
- Spindle cell lipoma.
