Benign Adenomyoepithelioma of the Breast: A Case Report and Review of Imaging Features

Adenomyoepithelioma (AME) of the breast is a rare tumor that can be benign or malignant and has varied morphological features. We report a case of a 62-year-old female with a history of right breast cancer who presented with abnormal screening mammography. The detection, presentation, and varied imaging characteristics of AMEs are discussed. The nonspecific imaging and histologic appearance of AME are highlighted, emphasizing the need for representative biopsy samples and histopathological review for diagnosis. Our case underlines the importance of wide surgical excision with negative margins in the presence of diagnostic uncertainty, which corresponds with the current recommended treatment for AME to prevent recurrence.
