GOMES-RODRIGUES, T.A. et al. Giant breast hamartoma: two cases of a rare entity. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2014, vol.40, n.3, pp.313-317. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0376-78922014000300010.

Giant hamartoma of the breast is an unusual clinicopathologic entity that tends to be mistaken with other tumours. Its clinical diagnosis is extremely difficult and, despite of the radiologic improvements, most of them are suspected and confirmed only when all specimen is studied. Its differential diagnosis includes fibroadenoma, lipoma, phyllodes tumour and various carcinomas. We report 2 cases of giant hamartoma of the breast in middle age female patients, with surgical approach of the tumor by nipple-areola sparing mastectomy and correction of the resultant breast deformity by prosthetic reconstruction and other with excisional biopsy with mastopexy.
