Resumen

La liponecrosis mamaria postraumática en el hombre es una entidad muy infrecuente. Puede ser indistinguible del cáncer de mama, tanto clínica como radiológicamente, siendo con frecuencia la mamografía y la ecografía no concluyentes (1). La punción aspiración con aguja fina (PAAF) puede sugerir el diagnóstico, pero el examen histológico es esencial para un diagnóstico correcto.

Presentamos un caso de liponecrosis mamaria postraumática en va-rón, que simulaba cáncer. Tras PAAF que sugiere la presencia de célu-las atípicas, se procede a realizar examen histológico, el cual da el diagnóstico definitivo.

Abstract

Posttraumatic fat necrosis of the breast very rarely occurs in men. It may be clinically and radiologically indistinguishable from breast cancer, and mammography and ultrasound are frequently inconclusive. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) may suggest the presence of this entity, but histological examination is essential for the correct diagnosis.

We present a case of a man with posttraumatic fat necrosis of the breast mimicking carcinoma. When the results of FNAB suggested the presence of atypical cells, histological examination was performed, disclosing the definitive diagnosis.
