Abstract:
We present the case of a 20-year-old woman, primigravida with 24 weeks of amenorrhoea due to pregnancy. She came with symptoms of rapidly increasing size of both the breasts since 8 weeks. On examination, both breasts were grossly enlarged, right more than left, with the level of the nipples reaching beyond the level of the umbilicus. Breast circumference was measured to be 72 cm on the right, and left breast was 66 cm. No palpable lumps in both breasts. No axillary lymphadenopathy noted. Hormonal studies were found to be within the normal range. The pregnancy was terminated due to pre-eclampsia. The patient opted for regular follow-up and observation. While regularly following up, the size of both breasts was observed to gradually reduce to a circumference of 40 cm on the right and 30 cm on the left.
