Background:

Pregnancy-associated breast masses require accurate diagnosis.
Lactating adenomas are benign breast tumors that can occur during pregnancy.
Distinguishing these from malignant lesions is crucial.

Observation:

A case of a giant lactating adenoma during pregnancy is presented.
The patient was followed for 12 months postpartum.
Both ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were utilized.

Findings:

Specific US and MRI imaging characteristics of lactating adenomas are discussed.
The imaging appearance evolved over the postpartum period.
Core biopsy proved valuable in diagnosis.

Implications:

Understanding the imaging spectrum of lactating adenomas aids in diagnosis.
US and MRI are key modalities for evaluating pregnancy-associated breast masses.
Core biopsy is essential for definitive diagnosis and management planning.
