Abstract

Ectopic breast tissue, which results from incomplete regression of the mammary line during embryogenesis, is observed in 0.2%-6% of the population. Carcinoma development in ectopic breast tissue, especially in the abdominal or chest wall, is rare. Here we present the unusual case of a 38-year-old woman with invasive ductal carcinoma in the ectopic breast tissue on the left side of the chest wall and concurrent fibroadenoma in the ectopic breast tissue on the right side. We also describe the US and MR findings of these masses.

이소성 유방 조직은 배아발생 과정 중 유선의 불완전한 퇴화로 발생하며 인구의 0.2%-6%를 차지한다. 흉벽이나 복벽에 발생한 이소성 유방암은 특히 드물게 보고되었다. 본 연구에서는 양측 전흉벽의 이소성 유방에 유방암과 섬유선종이 동시에 발생한 38세 여성의 매우 드문 사례를 초음파 및 자기공명영상 소견과 함께 보고하고자 한다.
