Abstract
Gigantomastia is a rare pathologic condition characterized by an excessive and abnormal breast hypertrophy. To date, there is no exact definition or classification of this disease. Pathogenesis still unclear. The purpose of this article is to present a case of extreme and disabling gigantomastia caused by pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia, one of the rarest etiology of gigantomastia.
