Abstract
A 54-year-old woman was referred to this institution because of spontaneous bloody discharge from the nipple of her left breast in July 2003. Physical examination revealed no mass, but minimal pressure on the mammary gland exuded a bloody discharge from the nipple. No lymph node swelling was recognized in the axillary or subclavicular regions. Mammography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed mastopathy. Ultrasonography on the immersion method demonstrated a dilated duct with an irregular, solid, hypoechoic mass immediately behind the nipple. Fine-needle aspiration cytology showed the mass to be an intraductal tumor. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) concentration of the nipple discharge was 400 ng/ml. Preoperatively, she was diagnosed as intraductal solitary papilloma, and endoscope-assisted microdochectomy was carried out under general anesthesia. The tumor was 10.5–10.6 mm in diameter and had developed from the posterior wall of the duct adjacent to the nipple. The tumor contained a small solid area in which a two-cell layer of epithelium was missing, and thus solitary papilloma coexisting with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) was diagnosed. Solitary intraductal papilloma coexisting with carcinoma is rare; cases of DCIS are exceptionally rare. Follow-up for 3 years has revealed no evidence of recurrence.
