DTF often presents with features mimicking breast carcinoma, posing diagnostic challenges and the risk of mismanagement. We report a case of a young woman with a left-sided breast mass and skin dimpling. Initial ultrasound and core needle biopsy findings suggested adenosis and intraductal papilloma. Due to the strong clinical suspicion of malignancy, a wide local excision was performed, which confirmed DTF. The patient is currently under surveillance with a regular MRI on follow-up. This case underscores the diagnostic difficulty of DTF, and due to its rarity and limited data, optimal management is debated.
