Leiomyomas are benign smooth muscle neoplasm. They can occur in any organ, but the most common forms occur in the uterus, small bowel and the esophagus. Leiomyomas of breast are rare benign non epithelial tumor. Only 21 cases of solitary parenchymal leiomyoma of the breast have been reported. This is the first case of multiple breast leiomyomas being reported in the literature. Here we report a case of a 38-year-old woman who presented to us with a painless right sided breast swelling. Histopathology revealed a growth pattern of interlacing fascicles of smooth-muscle cells consistent with leiomyoma of breast. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of multiple intraparenchymal leiomyomas of the breast reported in the literature.
