Breast hemangiomas are rare, and usually appear as well-delimited round or oval nodules at mammography. We report a case of a woman with a breast hemangioma, which mammographic features simulated malignancy, and present its pathologic correlation. Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that are rarely present in the breast, usually found incidentally on microscopy of biopsy material for other. They are occasionally detected by mammography, presenting as well-delimited round, lobulated nodules, sometimes with calcifications. We present the mammographic findings and pathologic correlation in a case of breast hemangioma with an atypical radiological manifestation, simulating a carcinoma. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case with these radiologic characteristics.
