Abstract
Fibroadenomas are benign lesions of the breast, very frequent, composed of glandular and stromal tissue. They are more frequent in women from 20 to 39 years of age, although they can appear in women of any age. It is considered as a giant fibroadenoma if it reaches a size greater than 5 cm or a weight greater than 500gr. We analyze a case of a 36-year-old female patient who comes to the clinic for presenting breast asymmetry at the expense of an enlarged left breast; Trucut biopsy is performed, reporting lipoma, so breast reconstruction is performed with stents. The transoperative finding was a giant tumor, performing its exeresis. The histological result reports breast fibroadenoma with foci of hyalinization and foci of fatty infiltration. It can be affirmed that breast pathology should always be studied in detail to establish the correct diagnosis.
