Abstract
Fibrocystic disorders of the breast are the most common benign breast diseases found predominantly in women aged 30–50 years with a spectrum of diseases ranging from simple cyst to solid lesions like usual ductal hyperplasia. These disorders are usually asymptomatic and are detected incidentally or if the patient presents with breast lump or pain. The clinical, radiological, and pathological evaluation is done then for an effective management.
