What is intraductal pappilloma?

Intraductal papilloma is a benign tumor of the breast. It is a small growth that forms inside a milk duct. Intraductal papillomas are usually non-cancerous, but they can sometimes become cancerous.

Symptoms of intraductal papilloma can include:

* A lump in the breast

* Nipple discharge

* Pain in the breast

* Swelling in the breast

Intraductal papillomas are diagnosed with a mammogram and ultrasound. A biopsy may also be needed to confirm the diagnosis.

Treatment for intraductal papilloma typically involves surgery to remove the tumor. The type of surgery will depend on the size and location of the tumor.

Intraductal papillomas are usually curable with treatment. However, there is a small risk that they can become cancerous. Regular follow-up care with a doctor is recommended to monitor for any changes in the breast.
