Bilateral Accessory Breast Tissue of Vulva: a Case Report
BACKGROUND: Though extremely uncommon, vulvar breast tissue has been identified and reported in both adolescent patients and during pregnancy. Supernumerary breast tissue is attributed to the failure of regression of remnant milk line during embryogenesis, which subsequently is stimulated during puberty or pregnancy.
