As they are almost always benign, it is important to include these lesions as a differential during triple assessment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case Report:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 43-year-old female was referred to the breast clinic after an incidental finding of a lesion on her left breast detected on a computed tomography scan. Clinical assessment was unremarkable. Ultrasound revealed a poorly defined hypoechoic lesion with distal acoustic shadowing and perilesional hyperechogenicity. These findings, along with mammographic examination, were considered highly suspicious for malignancy; therefore, ultrasound-guided percutaneous core biopsy was undertaken. This confirmed a diagnosis of granular cell tumours. After multidisciplinary team discussion, the lesion was surgically excised, with annual clinical examination and surveillance mammography arranged for the next 5 years.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Granular cell tumours of the breast are usually benign, although they may have imaging characteristics similar to those of breast malignancy.
