Sampatanukul P Radial scar, a descriptive term for a pathologic lesion, is composed of central area of
fibroelastosis and distorted ducts, and peripheral zone of intraductal hyperplasia. This lesion
often presents as a spiculated lesion, sometimes with microcalcifications, on mammography
which may mimic malignancy such as tubular carcinoma. We report a case of radial scar with
clustered microcalcifications incidentally found in the screened mammogram.
