Multiple ectopic breast tissue with a large lactating vulvar mass in a postpartum period
Abstract
Anogenital mammary-like glands were all previously considered ectopic breast tissues. Current literature suggest that it
can also represent a normal constituent of the anogenital area. Vulva ectopic breast tissue is extremely rare, with very
few cases reported to date.
Case report
We report a case of a patient presenting with bilateral swelling of the labia majora as well as ipsilateral axilla six days
postpartum. Histological examination from the biopsy of the vulvar mass confi rmed ectopic breast tissue.
Conclusion
Ectopic breast tissue is commonly described in the axilla or the chest wall but extremely rare in the vulva.
