RARE CASE REPORT - AXILLARY FIBROADENOMA
Journal Title: International Journal Of Advances In Surgery - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The Common congenital anomalies of breast are polymastia (supernumerary breast) and polythelia (supernumerary nipple); always do not fail to amuse the clinician because of their variable presentations, associated urological anomalies, and pathology arising from them. The axillary polymastia is a variant of ectopic breast tissue (EBT). Ectopic breast tissue can undergo the same pathological processes as the normally located breast. The incidence of fibro adenoma is rare pathology in ectopic breast, the most common pathology affecting ectopic breast being carcinomas. Case Presentation. A 31-year-old Indian female presented with a lump of 4 cm in the right axilla for the past year which gradually increased in size, giving discomfort. Our initial differential diagnosis was fibro adenoma, lipoma, and lymphadenopathy. IN COUNTRY LIKE INDIA TUBERCULOUS LYMPHADENOPATHY is among the differentials. Histopathology report of excision biopsy confirmed it as a fibro adenoma on ectopic breast tissue in the axilla. Patient has no associated urological or cardiac anomaly.
