Abstract
Fibroadenoma is a common benign breast tumor of young unmarried girls. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice. In
literature, many surgical approaches have been suggested to deal with this condition and evaluated in terms of patient’s satisfaction,
esthetic presentation and cosmetic outcome. We herein report a series of thirteen patients who have undergone surgical procedure
for the fibroadenoma breast. We applied periareolar incision to excise the fibroadenoma and got satisfactory results in terms
of speedy recovery, fine hidden scar mark, no intra/post-operative complication and high level of patient’s satisfaction without
compromising the primary goal of the surgical procedure i.e. complete excision of the tumor. We strongly recommend that
periareolar incision should be applied to excise benign breast tumors especially fibroadenomas with only caveat of large tumors,
very thin breast tissues and peripherally situated tumors.
