A mammary biopsy was suspicious for breast angiosarcoma, and refered, valued by mastology that reorients the diagnosis after further examination and biopsy, and documenting a rare association between virginal breast hypertrophy and difuse pseudoangiomatous hyperplasia of the mammary stroma, which together with a good diagnosis could receive appropriate treatment.
