Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is an invasive tumor that has been reported in many organs, such as the salivary glands, lungs, esophagus, and thymus; however, it rarely affects the breast. Here, we report a case of primary breast MEC with imaging, including mammography, ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
