title: Breast hamartoma: a case report.
abstract: Breast hamartoma is an uncommon benign lesion, composed of varying amounts of fatty, fibrous and glandular elements. It can present as a breast mass and therefore additional care needs to be taken to rule it out in the differential diagnosis of breast carcinoma. We report a case of a breast hamartoma treated at the European Institute of Oncology.
