Abstract
Myofibroblastoma of male breast is an uncommon benign tumor of breast arising from the stromal mesenchymal cells. Characterizing myofibroblastoma and differentiating it from other benign or malignant breast tumors is challenging due to the nonspecific imaging features and the existence of multiple histological variants. There are no pathognomonic imaging features specific to myofibroblastoma and the data available in literature is limited to few case reports. In this report we present the imaging and histopathological features of a biopsy proven myofibroblastoma of male breast and review the multimodality imaging features in correlation with clinical and histopathological findings.
