Abstract

Cholesterol granuloma of the breast is a rare benign condition. It is often clinically and radiologically indistinguishable from breast carcinoma. A case of cholesterol granuloma which manifested as an intracystic papilloma on ultrasound is described. This unusual ultrasonographic appearance has not previously been reported.
