Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of benign adenomyoepithelioma of the breast: radiologic and pathologic correlation in four cases

Benign adenomyoepithelioma of the breast is a rare tumor in which the cytologic findings have been described in only a few cases. While benign, the imaging and pathologic features may be mistaken for malignancy. We report the aspiration biopsy findings in four cases of adenomyoepithelioma with radiologic and histologic correlation. Cytopathologists should familiarize themselves with this entity to avoid a misdiagnosis of carcinoma.
