Abstract:
Many patients present to the breast clinic with variable symptoms. The degree of palpability is the important symptom for patients and clinicians. Both mammography and ultrasonography play an important role in the diagnosis of breast diseases by indicating the cause of the symptoms and aiding in the selection of treatment for the disease. Sometimes, however, we meet unexpected results. In this paper, we will illustrate the ultrasonographic and mammographic findings of interesting, unusual or perplexing breast cases in order to familiarize ourselves with these breasts through these cases and thereby assist in future diagnosis.
