Abstract

The growing awareness of female breast cancer has led to increased sensitivity toward pAathological breast conditions in pediatric patients. Palpable breast masses arising in adolescent and pubertal girls are uncommon. The most common benign breast lesions are fibroadenoma and benign phylloides tumors. The mammary tumors with myoepithelial component are very rare in pubertal girls. We report a case of adenomyoepithelioma in a 15 year old girl and discuss the problems of diagnosis of breast masses in adolescent girls.

Keywords: Adenomyoepithelioma; Myoepithelial Tumors; Adolescent Girls; Breast Mass.
