Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) tumour at the surgical scar site in a patient of carcinoma breast.

Abstract
A patient on follow-up post surgery for carcinoma breast, presented with a nodule under the surgical scar. The sinister eventuality of recurrent carcinoma was clinically considered first. The lesion was biopsied and the histopathology was diagnostic of pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia tumour. The nodule was excised and the patient's clinical denouement has been uneventful in the 4 months which have elapsed after this event.
