Abstract
Inflammatory pseudotumors (IP) have come to the forefront in recent times with this characteristic lesion being described in several sites.1–5 The multiplicity of sites of occurrence is matched by the plethora of names given to this condition. It has been rejoiced under the rubric of plasma cell granuloma, xanthomatous pseudotumor, xanthogranuloma, inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor/lesion and inflammatory fibromyxoid tumor, to name but some. This paper presents three cases of IP occurring in the breast and highlights the histological features in this unusual site.
