Nipple adenoma, formerly known as erosive adenomatosis of the nipple or florid papillomatosis of the nipple, is a benign proliferation of the lactiferous ducts of the nipple. Histologically, it is an irregular ductal proliferation with papillary projections seen within the nipple stroma without significant cellular atypia. Clinically, it presents as an eroded mass on the nipple, most commonly inwomenaged40 to50years.Tumormargins are often indistinct and ill-defined requiring excision of the nipple–areolar complex to avoid recurrences. Recently, Mohsmicrographic surgery (MMS)hasbeenused for the treatment of nipple adenomas (Table 1). We present an additional case in a 26-year-old woman successfully treatedbyMMS,with satisfactory cosmetic outcomeand preservation of the nipple–areolar complex.
