Fibroadenomas are common benign tumors of the female breast. In the appropriate clinical setting, they are often managed expectantly without excision. Rarely, cancer may arise within a fibroadenoma, and this diagnosis mandates prompt treatment for malignancy. We present the case of a 70-year-old Samoan woman with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) arising within a fibroadenoma. Health care practitioners should be aware of the possibility, particularly in older women, of finding carcinoma within a fibroadenoma, which informs the rationale for prompt surgical evaluation and follow up of all breast masses.
纤维腺瘤是女性乳房常见的良性肿瘤。在适当的临床情况下,通常对其采取观察等待而不进行切除的处理方式。极少数情况下,纤维腺瘤内可能发生癌变,这种诊断需要对恶性肿瘤进行及时治疗。我们报告一例70岁的萨摩亚女性病例,其纤维腺瘤内发生了导管原位癌(DCIS)。医疗从业者应意识到在纤维腺瘤内发现癌变的可能性,尤其是在老年女性中,这为对所有乳腺肿块进行及时手术评估和随访提供了依据。
