A women who sustained injury to a breast because of falling down is presented. Except isolated seat belt traumas, isolated breast traumas are very rare events. Trauma to the breast can produce lesions which cannot be distinguished from malignant lesions by clinical examination or radiological imaging. If we have any suspicion all such lesions should be biopsied to minimize the risk of missing a carcinoma.
