Case 2

35 year old female with a breast lump

This 35 year old lady presented with a lump in her left breast. A needle aspiration performed in the assessment clinic produced fluid, which was a little blood-stained. She was referred for an ultrasound to confirm the initial clinical impression of a benign cyst.

What is the likely diagnosis, based on the ultrasound appearances? Is it a benign cyst or not? State your reasons.
