Abstract
Infarction of benign lesions of the breast is very uncommon and may lead to difficulties in clinical and pathological diagnosis. Five instances of infarction occurring in a fibro-adenoma are described; in 2 of them thrombo-occlusive vascular changes were seen. The aetiology, pathogenesis, and helpful diagnostic features are discussed.Keywords
