Papillomatosis of the breast (PB) is a rare, benign, epitheliosis-like lesion, i.e. an overgrowth of the cells lining the ducts of glands that resembles a papilla (i.e. small rounded protuberance) or nipple-like nodule/tumor. PB tumors develop in the apocrine glands of the breast.[1][2] PB is also termed juvenile papillomatosis because of its frequent occurrence in younger women (including, in uncommon cases, children and adolescent females) and Swiss cheese disease because of its microscopic appearance.[3] Rarely, PB has also been diagnosed in very young, adolescent, and adult males.[4]
A PB tumor is typically an asymptomatic lesion that is detected on examination as a palpable but otherwise symptomless breast mass or in some cases by routine breast cancer screening methods in individuals unaware of the mass's presence.[3] Although PB tumors are themselves benign, a significant percentage of individuals with these tumors concurrently have or will develop certain types of breast carcinomas and/or have a family history of relatives with breast carcinomas.[5] Cases of PB have also been reported to occur in individuals with a family history of certain genetic diseases.[4]
Pediatric cases of PB tumors are commonly treated by total resection.[6] Complete excision of PB tumors with clear surgical margins to remove all tumor cells is important in order to reduce a recurrence of the tumor at its site of removal.[3][7][8] Regular, long-term follow-up monitoring is recommended especially for individuals with multiple PB tumors, individuals who have a family history of relatives with breast cancer, and/or individuals with PB tumors that have other aggressive features.[7][8]
