Abstract

Adenomyoepithelioma of the breast is an unusual tumor characterized by biphasic proliferation of both epithelial and
myoepithelial cells. Although most of these tumors have a benign course, a small number of malignant lesions have
been reported in the literature. Adenomyoepithelioma is also characterized by propensity for local recurrence. Therefore,
the sufficiency of initial surgery plays very important role in the management of these tumors. Due to the potential
to malignant transformation and high risk of local recurrence, totally excision with wide margins should be performed
in surgical treatment of these tumors. In this paper, three cases of adenomyoepithelioma of the breast with different
clinical presentations and radiological findings were reported. J Clin Exp Invest 2016; 7 (1): 91-93
