ABSTRACT

Our purpose was to determine mammographic, and ultrasonographic features of breast papilloma and to correlate the features with histopathological findings. Intraductal papillary neoplasms of nipple includes a wide variety of spectrum ranges from benign intraductal papilloma occupying one end of spectrum and papillary carcinoma at the other end. They are broadly classified into central and peripheral types. Intraductal papilloma are usually located centrally or in the retro areolar region, when symptomatic, patient presents with bloody nipple discharge. These lesions were most commonly observed in perimenopausal patients. However, with more widespread use of ultrasound, solitary or multiple papilloma’s are being detected with increasing frequency at very young age in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients.
