Atypical apocrine adenosis (AAA) is a benign lesion of the breast that is identified more frequently today than in the past when it was considered a rare diagnosis and commonly misdiagnosed as other malignant lesions of the breast. AAA is defined as the presence of apocrine cytology in a recognisable lobular unit associated with sclerosing adenosis. We present a case of an incidental finding of AAA and discuss diagnostic challenges and their implications on clinical management.
非典型大汗腺腺病(AAA)是一种乳腺良性病变,如今比过去更常被发现,过去它被认为是一种罕见的诊断,且常被误诊为其他乳腺恶性病变。AAA的定义为在与硬化性腺病相关的可识别小叶单位中存在大汗腺细胞学特征。我们报告一例偶然发现的AAA病例,并讨论诊断挑战及其对临床管理的影响。
