Fibroadenomas are benign lumps in the breast. Most of the fibroadenomas which are asymptomatic and not growing in size and no complex features on ultrasound, then there is no risk of cancer and these can be safely observed clinically and with regular ultrasound. Most of them disappear with age, most of them hem by menopause. If painful, large (> 4-5 cms) symptomatic, enlarging in size or complex features on ultrasound or if Patient wants it removed, excision Biopsy of the same can be done. If you want to share the reports or discuss this further, feel free to contact me directly.
