Nipple leiomyoma: A rare neoplasm with a broad spectrum of histologic appearances

Cutaneous leiomyomas are rare benign smooth‐muscle tumors. These lesions are distinguished based on their cell of origin and are subclassified as pilar leiomyoma, angioleiomyoma, and genital‐type leiomyoma. Nipple leiomyoma is the least common genital‐type leiomyoma, arising from the dartoic muscle cell of the nipple. Histologic examination of the lesion is necessary for definitive diagnosis, and these uncommon tumors can pose a diagnostic challenge. We describe herein a series of six nipple leiomyomas with a spectrum of histologic appearances.     

持续弹性外牵引矫正乳头内陷

目的 探索一种行之有效的、微创的乳头内陷矫正方法。方法 用钢丝、弹簧和塑料注射器制成弹性可调式的乳头内陷矫治器，利用弹性牵引作用，持续牵拉内陷乳头3～6个月。结果 14例患者均得以矫正，并获得良好的近期效果。1例患者因左侧乳头内陷严重，治疗2周时钢丝接近脱出乳头而更换矫治器并延长佩戴时间。随访患者6～12个月。效果稳定。结论 弹性可调式乳头内陷矫治器用于先天性乳头内陷的治疗，近期临床效果较好，为目前较佳的非手术治疗乳头内陷的方法，但其机理和远期效果还需进一步研究和观察。     

微小切口双重荷包缝合法矫正重度乳头内陷

目的 介绍一种疗效确切,创伤小,矫正重度乳头内陷的新术式.方法 设计切口位于乳晕第四象限,方向斜向外下方,呈放射状切口,长约1.5 cm,松解乳头基底部,切断牵拉的纤维条索,上提乳头,在距乳头0.8cm和1.5cm处,双重荷包缝合固定.结果 12例乳头内陷患者术后随访1个月至4年,均获得满意疗效.乳头横径、纵径、高度及外观明显改善.结论 该术式矫正乳头内陷具有切口小、创伤轻微、操作简单易行、效果确切、不易复发和并发症少等优点.

目的探讨乳头溢液的渗断和治疗方法，为合理的治疗提供科学依据。方法回顾分析手术治疗的207例乳头溢液病例资料。结果（1）在非哺乳期间发生乳头溢液多属病理性溢液；（2）通过美蓝法或平针头指示法行区段切除术，安全准确。结论（1）乳头溢液特别足血性溢液应手术治疗．对早期发现和早期治疗乳腺癌有鼋要的临床意义。（2）乳头溢液伴肿块者，不沧年龄大小、溢液性质均应手术治疗。     

Mammaplasty: Shape,volume, and scar size

Recently many mammaplasty techniques have been presented with special attention paid to the resulting scar's size and its position. The surgeon should try to hid the scar, and if the inverted T incision is used, its horizontal branch should be as short as possible and kept in the breast area. Neverthelss, excessive concern about the final scar size should not interfere with the final results of the mammaplasty as far as shape, volume and lasting results are concerned. The author presents his experience in mammaplasty with respect to the volume, the shape, and the scar size interrelationships.     

Case report: A man with breast dysphoria

A 31-year-old married man with normal male characteristics requested hormonal treatment to enlarge his breasts and nipples. He did not feel himself to be homosexual or transsexual but considered himself incomplete without female breasts and nipples. Petting of his nipples resulted in sexual excitement and he presumed that feminization of his breasts would improve this function. His wife supported his wish. After treatment with 0.150 mg ethinylestradiol per day for 9 months, moderate breast enlargement occurred and the nipples became the size of normal female nipples. One year afterwards he remained satisfied with his female-type breasts and in particular with the increased sexual function of his nipples. Stimulation of his nipples resulted in erection and ejaculation.     

乳管镜对乳腺导管内疾病的诊断及介入治疗--附100例临床分析

Endoscopic and Histologic Findings of Intraductal Lesions Presenting with Nipple Discharge

Abstract:   To improve the utility of mammary ductoscopy, we investigated the correlation between endoscopic findings and histologic findings using intraductal biopsy specimens. Seventy-one intraductal biopsy specimens obtained from 63 patients between October 2001 and March 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. All specimens were obtained from monotonous intraductal lesions immediately after observation by mammary ductoscopy and were composed of a pure histologic subtype. With regard to endoscopic findings, color was classified as yellow, red, white, or colorless, and morphology was classified as spherical, lobular, mulberry, or amorphous. The histologic subtype was classified as papillotubular, papillary, degenerated, papillary cancer, solid-type ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), or cribriform cancer. The relationship between histologic diagnosis, color, and morphology was investigated. Intraductal biopsy specimens included 25 specimens of carcinoma and 46 specimens of papilloma. There was no significant correlation between color and diagnosis. Fourteen of 25 carcinoma specimens were amorphous, and amorphous morphology was significantly suggestive of malignancy (p < 0.001). Further, cribriform cancer was associated with amorphous morphology and yellow color. Morphology may be a useful endoscopically delineated parameter for differentiating intraductal lesions.      

三角瓣法乳头缩小术

目的:探讨缩小乳头的理想方法。方法:楔形切除乳头组织缩小乳头周径;将正常高度以远的乳头组织形成三个大小适中的三角形皮瓣,对合后形成新乳头的顶面或在乳头基部环形去表皮直接缝合降低乳头高度。结果:新乳头形态、感觉良好,勃起、哺乳正常。结论:三角瓣法乳头缩小术设计灵活精确,操作较简单易学,而且安全可靠,能够解决各种类型的乳头肥大,值得推广。     

MRI visualization of the aortic nipple

The aortic nipple, a small “pseudotumor” adjacent to the aortic arch, is the left superior intercostal vein. In our series of 40 patients it was demonstrated in six; all had a right upper thoracic mass and four had a superior vena caval syndrome. Coronal magnetic resonance, images (MRI) of the thorax were superior to all other imaging methods in demonstrating the nipple. It is concluded that in patients with masses in the right upper chest, coronal MR chest examinations are valuable in demonstrating an aortic nipple, a sign of impending present superior vena caval or innominate, vein obstruction.
