Abstract
Fibroadenomas usually present as single lesion in breast and there are few reports in literature of multiple fibroadenomas in both breasts. Multiple lesions in single breast are seldom reported. We report a rare case of multiple fibroadenomas, 12 in number, in a young girl in left breast. Diagnosis was made ultrasonographically and with aspiration cytology. We managed to remove all lesions with 2 submammary incisions. There was no recurrence seen on follow up of 3 years.
