Ectopic breast tissue is the presence of retained breast tissue along the embryologic mammary ridge, also known as the milk line. Accessory tissue can be located anywhere along or outside the anatomic milk line extending from the axilla to the groin. Ectopic breast tissue can undergo the same physiologic and pathologic changes seen in normal breast tissue, such as fibroadenomas, fibrocystic changes, and malignancy. The wide range of clinical presentations and symptomatology can pose a significant diagnostic challenge, and clinicopathologic correlation is key in establishing the diagnosis. In this report, we review the clinical and histopathologic findings in a rare case of cutaneous periumbilical fibroadenomas in a 25-year-old female.
异位乳腺组织是指沿胚胎乳腺嵴(也称为乳线)保留的乳腺组织。副乳腺组织可位于从腋窝到腹股沟的解剖学乳线沿线或其外侧的任何位置。异位乳腺组织可发生与正常乳腺组织相同的生理和病理变化,如纤维腺瘤、纤维囊性变和恶性肿瘤。临床表现和症状的广泛多样性可能带来重大的诊断挑战,而临床病理相关性是确立诊断的关键。在本报告中,我们回顾了一名25岁女性罕见的脐周皮肤纤维腺瘤病例的临床和组织病理学发现。
