Breast fibroadenomas are a common disease in females, mainly in those aged 20-40 years. For differential diagnosis of fibroadenomas, it is expedient to apply a comprehensive approach whose leading role is played by mammography. The histological structure of fibroadenomas determines their X-ray and sonographic signs. Indications for choosing a surgical treatment are identified by X-ray and sonographic manifestations of fibroadenomas of various histological structure and by typical changes at a follow-up.
