Accessory Axillary Breast Tissue

Abstract

We have experienced a case of the more unusual form of supernumerary breast tissue which is characterized by the presence of aberrant gland tissue alone. The case was a 30-year-old female patient in puerperium with bilateral axillary masses of seven years duration. Gentle pressure over the right-sided one caused milk to exude from a skin pore. Histopathologic findings of the tumors revealed the lobules of the breast forming islands of glandular tissue.
