Are Cancer lumps ever Blue?

I recently had a lumpectomy and waiting for my results. The lump was blue black and shiny attached to something grey white. I asked if I could take a picture of it, so I did. I was curious to see what they took out of me. The doctor said he will be surprised if it comes back cancer. However, he offered no other comments on types or names of what it could be. So I googled similar looking lumps. I came up with Blue Dome Cysts. Does anyone have any info on this or others that have had similar like lumps removed? This was sitting on top of my implant, so it was rather deep. It's been 3 days and still have not heard back.If it was cancer would they know right away or does it really take 5-7 days.

Thank You,

Michelle

    Hi randymich, I had a blue colour under my skin where my lump was on my left breast. When it was removed the surgeon said it was a very dark colour like a melonoma which stressed me out abit. He fast tracked pathology and it came back as a vascular neoplasm. It tested benign but no clear margin so I am having a wide excisional biopsy next week to have more tissue removed to get a clear margin, it could regrow if some of it is remaining in breast tissue. Hope yours all checks out benign also.
