Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 49‐year‐old woman underwent ultrasound‐guided core biopsy of a fibroadenoma with marker placement and presents her postbiopsy mammogram that demonstrated a metallic marker in the left breast with no residual mass. It highlights the discovery that the postbiopsy maker was manufactured with an imbedded tubular plug to increase ultrasound visibility.
