Pseudoaneurysm development is a well-recognized consequence of arterial injury, frequently observed in procedures involving arterial groin access. Breast emergencies are infrequent but need prompt attention. We present a notable case of breast pseudoaneurysm postcore needle biopsy, incidentally, identified through subsequent magnetic resonance imaging. Remarkably, the patient's lactating status emerged as a unique risk factor. Our report thoroughly explores the pathogenesis, etiology, preventive measures, and treatment strategies specific to breast pseudoaneurysms. A comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon is essential for radiologists at large, with particular importance for specialists in breast imaging.
