Clinical History

An "indeterminate density" was seen at mammography, correlating to a solid 1 cm nodule. This nodule was excised.

Clinical Discussion

Sclerosing papilloma is a benign glandular proliferation with dense fibrosis, present at least in part within a duct lumen. The glandular component has both myoepithelial and epithelial layers, and apocrine metaplasia is often present. Small tubular glands can become entrapped within the sclerosing stroma.
