Managing Breast Fibroadenoma

 

 

Fibroadenomas are common non-cancerous breast lumps composed of glandular and fibrous tissue but they are not common in postmenopausal women.

Occurrence of fibroadenoma over age 50 may escalate concerns. While typically benign, the risk of breast cancer increases with age. Sometimes, breast cancer looks like fibroadenoma in imaging. 

This induces fear, anxiety in the patient and the family.
