This report discusses a case of a 27-year-old female with histopathological examination results of multiple epidermal inclusion cysts (EICs) coexisting with fibroadenoma without any involvement of breast skin. EIC should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses for benign breast lesions. Radiological evaluation, with surgical excision and histopathologic examination, remains the gold standard for the management of EIC. This report aims to increase the level of awareness on the existence of EIC in the breast parenchyma and the possibility of it coexisting with or arising from other benign breast lesions like fibroadenoma.
本报告讨论了一例27岁女性病例，其组织病理学检查结果显示为多个表皮样囊肿（EIC）与纤维腺瘤并存，且未累及乳腺皮肤。EIC应被视为良性乳腺病变的鉴别诊断之一。放射学评估、手术切除及组织病理学检查仍是EIC治疗的金标准。本报告旨在提高对乳腺实质中EIC存在情况以及其与纤维腺瘤等其他良性乳腺病变并存或由其引发可能性的认识水平。
