Accessory breast is a rare entity that can present as asymptomatic masses or can cause symptoms like heaviness, pain, restriction of arm movement and limitation in daily pursuits with allied apprehension and anxiety for the patient. We present a case of bilateral axillary masses mimicking as accessory breast with multiple fibroadenoma in a 28 years, nulliparous, Indian woman who is HIV positive, which proves to be a diagnostic dilemma. Excisional biopsy was diagnostic. The rarity of such cases imposes challenges on the management in terms of diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic options.
副乳是一种罕见的情况,可表现为无症状肿块,也可引起诸如沉重感、疼痛、手臂活动受限以及日常生活受限等症状,同时患者会伴有担忧和焦虑。我们报告一例28岁、未生育、HIV阳性的印度女性双侧腋窝肿块病例,该肿块酷似伴有多个纤维腺瘤的副乳,这是一个诊断难题。切除活检具有诊断意义。此类病例的罕见性在诊断、预后和治疗选择方面给管理带来了挑战。
