Epidermal Cyst Subareolar Region of Breast – A Rare Benign Entity

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

Epidermal cyst arising from breast is an uncommon benign condition. Its rarity accounts for it being erroneously misdiagnosed. The patient may not seek medical attention because of small painless swelling, unless the lump increases in size or becomes painful. Symptomatic cases should be readily excised and need histological correlation to rule out any potential complications that can arise in these cysts.
