Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Mucocele-like lesions (MLLs) of the breast are rare. MLLs with atypia have a 17.5% upgrade rate to malignancy, warranting excision, while those without atypia have a 4.1% rate, suggesting surveillance may be suitable.

Area of Science:

  • Breast pathology
  • Radiology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Mucocele-like lesions (MLLs) are rare breast findings characterized by mucin-filled cysts.
  • MLLs can be associated with various atypical and malignant breast conditions.
  • Mammographic findings are nonspecific, often presenting as calcifications or masses.

Conclusions:

  • Excision is recommended for MLLs with atypia due to significant malignancy risk.
  • Imaging surveillance can be considered for MLLs without atypia on a case-by-case basis.
  • Further research on MLLs is needed to refine management strategies.
