Özet

Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) is a benign entity defined in 1987. Conventional breast imaging methods, including mammography, ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance imaging findings have been published in the literature before. Sonoelastography (SE) is an imaging method that allows us to evaluate tissue stiffness in vivo. Many studies have shown that SE increases the specificity of B-mode US in the discrimination of benign-malignant lesions. In this case report, it was shown that PASH is of high stiffness in shear wave elastography evaluation. To our best knowledge, this is the first case presenting SWE findings of PASH in the published literature.
