    Abstract:
    Cavernous hemangioma of the breast, are thin-walled, blood-filled vascular spaces, separated by fibrous septa, with extensive fibrosis and sometimes phleboliths. Clinical diagnosis is rather difficult. Generally they are coincidental microscopic findings. We report herein a case of 37 years old woman with cavernous hemangioma of the breast. Physical examination, mammography and ultrasonography were not enough for the diagnosis. Surgical excision of the lesion was performed. Histological sample showed a cavernous hemangioma without cellular atypia. The role of the single diagnostic examination is limited and complementary of all available techniques in the evaluation of the breast lesions.
