Abstract

Nipple adenoma is a relatively rare benign breast neoplasm, and cases of the disease arising from the Accessory breast nipple are a rare entity. We report a case of nipple adenoma arising from accessory nipple. A 24-year-old woman presented with the complaint of pain and bleeding from accessory nipple since 4 months in right breast. Physical examination confirmed a well-defined nipple in the milk line 5 cm below right nipple. The diagnosis of nipple adenoma was made from an excisional specimen on the basis of characteristic histological findings. Because clinically nipple adenoma may resemble Paget’s disease and pathologically can be misinterpreted as tubular carcinoma, the correct identification of nipple adenoma is an important factor in the differential diagnosis for nipple neoplasms.
