The chances of cancer in fibroadenoma is quite less, that too mostly in those with complex fibroadenoma. If reported as complex fibroadenoma on ultrasound, It's difficult to distinguish fibroadenoma from benign phylloides tumor even on core Biopsy. But if you are symptomatic for the same or it's cosmetically worrying you or is increasing in size, better to get it operated.

You are at risk if you have 1st and 2nd degree relatives had cancer. Needs to see you for examination and analysis.
