Abstract:
We herein report a case of axillary localization of supernumerary breast. It is a matter of axillary bilateral masses mistaken as lipoma at clinical examination and ultrasonography. We here explain this confusion between lipoma and supernumerary breast. The aim of this work is to specify clinical characters of an axillary mass that must lead to suspect a supernumerary breast.
