Incidentally detected breast lesions: a pictorial essay of malignant and benign findings
DOI: 10.31744/einstein_journal/2025RW0681
ABSTRACT Incidentalomas are lesions incidentally identified in patients undergoing imaging for unrelated reasons. Breast incidentalomas have a high correlation with malignancy, occurring in over 40% of cases. Consequently, their interpretation poses significant challenges for radiologists who must discern the findings that may present a potential risk to the patient. This pictorial review presents different incidental breast lesions revealed through cross-sectional imaging. We further review key concepts related to such incidentalomas.

Approximately 150 cases of littoral cell angioma have been reported since 1991. Its clinical manifestation is usually asymptomatic and is mostly diagnosed as an incidental finding through abdominal imaging. Herein, we present a case of littoral cell angioma in a 41-year-old woman with no previous comorbidities, which initially presented as a nonspecific splenic lesion diagnosed on imaging in the […]
