Fine needle aspiration of breast carcinoma in a fibroadenoma.
A case of concurrent carcinoma of the breast with a fibroadenoma in a 59-year-old woman is described. The diagnosis was made on fine needle aspiration cytology. Despite the rarity of such a lesion, it is felt that a cytological diagnosis of this lesion from a fine needle aspirate specimen is possible.
