Abstract

Infiltrating syringomatous adenoma of the nipple is composed of small sweat ducts and solid strands, surrounded by desmoplastic stroma and preferentially develops in the superficial breast tissue and specially in the nipple. This particular and exceptional lesion deserves to be acknowlegded by pathologists concerned with breast pathology since this tumor mimics grade 1 invasive breast ductal carcinoma.
