Abstract

Supernummerary breast is a rare developmental anomaly occurring along the course of the embryological milk lines, which run from the anterior axillary folds to the inner thighs. Kajava first described the classification of supernumerary tissue in 1915, and this term is still in use. We herein report two cases of supernumerary breast, classified as Kajava classification type 3 and 6.
