[Breast adenomyoepithelioma: About a case and review of the literature].

Abstract

Adenomyoepithelioma (AME) is a rare primary breast tumor characterized by a mixed proliferation of epithelial and myoepithelial cells. This tumor can display heterogeneous, often nonspecific, imaging features. A definitive diagnosis of AME requires a biopsy with histopathological examination to guide therapeutic management. However, the rarity of this lesion, the type of sampling, and its polymorphic appearance can make diagnosis particularly challenging. Differential diagnoses are extensive, encompassing both benign and malignant lesions. We present herein the case of a 76-year-old female patient along with a review of the literature on breast AME.
