Summary: | Pseudoangiomatous of the breast is a rare benign stromal proliferation that simulates a vascular lesion. It rarely form a breast lump but more commonly presents as an incidental component coexistent with other breast lesions. Several authors believe in non-surgical intervention with long term follow up if core biopsy is confirmatory of PASH. In our center, we recommend surgical excision with adequate margin for local control. We present a rare case of PASH presenting as a huge, fast growing breast lump with challenging diagnoisis in a young lady. We feel that surgical approach is the definitive treatment for PASH. |
