Understanding Accessory Breast Tissue
‘Accessory breast tissue’ refers to breast tissue that develops between the breast and the armpit, forming a small additional breast.
When accessory breast tissue is prominent, it can disrupt the overall balance and appearance of the breasts. In some cases, changes in the glandular tissue may also lead to other breast-related conditions.
Causes of Accessory Breast Tissue
Accessory breasts can generally develop in two ways, depending on the cause.
CASE 1
Accessory breast tissue develops naturally, resulting in an additional area of glandular breast tissue near the armpit.
CASE 2
Fatty tissue in the armpit area becomes more prominent or protrudes, creating an appearance similar to accessory breast tissue.

If any glandular breast tissue remains, accessory breast tissue may recur. Therefore, treatment involves completely removing the excess glandular breast tissue.
Fat is also present above the glandular tissue. This fat is separate from the subcutaneous fat beneath the skin, so the fat surrounding the glandular tissue in the accessory breast area must also be removed to properly correct the contour.
During accessory breast tissue removal surgery, the incision is minimized to make the scar as inconspicuous as possible.
