case_images: Upon palpation, the axillary and abdominal breasts were warm and painful, and there was evidence of necrosis and ulceration of two of the mammary glands (Figure 1a). The histological examination showed widespread fibroadenomatous hyperplasia with proliferation of the ductal epithelium of the mammary glands, which confirmed the diagnosis of MFH (Figure 3 and Appendix 1 in the supplementary material). Six days after beginning the therapy, a reduction in size and change in the consistency of all mammary glands was already evident (Figure 1b). Complete remission of clinical signs was observed approximately 4 weeks later, similar to that reported in the literature (Figure 1c). Another follow-up was performed 3 months later, with no visible signs of disease recurrence observed (Figure 1d).
