Giant mixed hemangioma of the breast: A case report with imaging findings

Hemangioma of the breast is an uncommon tumor type that is usually small, superficially located, and impalpable. The majority of cases are cavernous hemangiomas. We describe a rare case of a large, palpable mixed hemangioma of the breast which was located in the parenchymal layer, studied with magnetic resonance imaging, mammography, and sonography. Magnetic resonance imaging findings of slow and persistent enhancement from the center to periphery are useful in characterizing benign breast hemangiomas, where even the lesion presents with a suspicious shape and margin on sonography.
