Imaging features of myopericytoma of the breast: A case report and review of the literature

Myopericytoma is a rare perivascular tumor commonly arising in the superficial soft tissue and subcutaneous tissue of the distal extremities. We report the first case of myopericytoma occurring in the breast, focusing on the imaging and histopathological characteristics of the tumor. From an imaging...
