Abstract

Introduction

Malignant transformation within hamartoma of the breast is uncommon. Invasive ductal or lobular carcinoma of the breast with this aetiology has been noted rarely in the literature.

Conclusion

We discuss the diagnosis, radiology and pathology of a 79-year-old lady with an invasive ductal carcinoma arising within a breast hamartoma.
