Abstract

|
|
|
Irregular hypoechoic masses in the breast do not always indicate malignancies. Many benign breast diseases present with irregular hypoechoic masses that can mimic carcinoma on ultrasonography. Some of these diseases such as inflammation and trauma-related breast lesions could be suspected from a patient’s symptoms and personal history. Careful ultrasonographic examination and biopsy could help to differentiate these from malignancies.
