In my mother's (age 52) breast USG it's given in the findings as One well defined hypoechoic solid SOL (13�11�13 mm) with mild internal vascularity, is seen in right breast at 12 O' clock position. No intra lesional calcification. What does it mean? Is it cancer?

Present information is not sufficient to conclude if this is cancer or not. Please take your mother to an oncologist for clinical examination. If the lump is suspicious then a needle biopsy has to be done.

Well defined hyperechoic lesion on USG is usually a fibroadenoma. Anechoic is usually a cyst. Hypoechoic lesions are suspicious for phylloides tumors or cancers, but they are usually ill defined rather than well defined as in your case. Will need to examine her clinically as well as see the ultrasound scans. I would do a X-Ray MAMMOGRAPHY and a core Biopsy of the same under ultrasound guidance.
