Abstract
Fibromatosis of the breast is a non-metastasizing benign, but locally invasive stromal tumor, accounting for less than 0.2% of all primary breast lesions
and is formed by proliferation of fibroblastic and myofibroblastic cells. Mammary fibromatosis in men is extremely rare and may mimic primary breast
malignancy. We report a case of breast fibromatosis in a 52-year old male, where magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed, which was showing
some salient features by which it can be distinguished from breast carcinoma and confirmed on histopathology and Immunohistochemical (IHC) examination.
