| description | Chondrolipomatous tumours are rare benign neoplasms consisting of adipose and cartilage tissue, and only a few cases have been reported. Physical examination, ultrasound and mammography usually reveals a fi broadenoma. Despite imaging modalities, it is not often possible to diff erentiate these lesions from fi broadenomas and breast carcinomas. In these cases excision is necessary as well as useful in providing an exact diagnosis. We describe a young patient with chondrolipomatous tumour of the breast, in which the cartilage was calcifi ed focally. |
