Rare Fibroadenoma of the Anal Region

Introduction: Fibroadenomas are one of the most common benign breast lesions, however they have also been found on rare occasionselsewhere. These lesions usually arise frommammary-like glands (MLG) of the anogenital region which were first describedby van der Putte.Methods: This case is about a 51-y...
