Duplication of the nipples and areolae
Clinical Dysmorphology, 2007A young South African woman has bilateral duplication of the nipples and areolae in an apparently horizontal plane on each breast. She is otherwise normal in every respect, and her family history is negative. This configuration of breast tissue is very unusual and, to the best of our knowledge, it has not previously been reported.

Nipple-areola reconstruction from nonspecialized tissues is presented as a worthwhile component of breast reconstruction. General principles are discussed, as are specific techniques for reconstruction of the areola and the nipple. The author's method is recommended as the most efficient use of local tissue for nipple reconstruction in the prosthetic ...

Leiomyosarcoma in Ectopic Areola
The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 1992We report an exceptional case of smooth muscle tumor arising in an aberrant areola. In spite of the malignant histopathologic features of the tumor, the patient is healthy 6 years after complete surgical removal of his lesion.

Breast Disease, 2002
Creation of the nipple areolar complex often represents the final hurdle in a long and arduous reconstructive process for women with breast cancer. It is as important as any aspect of the reconstruction, and closes the chapter for both patient and surgeon. In essence, it transforms the reconstructed mound into a breast.

One of the more unusual forms of supernumerary breast tissue is characterized by the presence of areolar tissue only. The case presented describes a patient with three supernumerary areolae, including one located outside the embryonic milk line. There is a possibility that this finding represents an atavistic phenomenon.

Hyperkeratosis of Nipple and Areola
Archives of Dermatology, 1978Hyperkeratosis of the nipple and areola is said to be rare. Mehregan and Rahbari presented two patients with it and reviewed the 13 other reported cases in the world literature.1They state that this eruption may occur in patients with ichthyosis or it may represent an epidermal nevus, with the latter form usually bilateral and in young women of ...

Reconstruction of the nipple and areola
British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1976Abstract The absence of a nipple and areola is a significant deformity to most women and there is no universally satisfactory method of reconstruction. Using a free graft from the labium minus (Adams, 1949) may to some merely exchange one deformity for another.

RECONSTRUCTION OF THE NIPPLE-AREOLA COMPLEX
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1978We present a technique for nipple-areolar reconstruction, which consists basically of hinging two quadrangular dermafat flaps together after denuding the entire area. Mucosal grafts are then applied over the whole nipple-areolar site.

To the Editor.— Dermatologists rely on the clinical features of pigmented lesions to aid in the early diagnosis of malignant melanoma. The characteristics described by Friedman et al 1 as being most predictive of melanoma are asymmetry, border irregularity, color variation, and a diameter greater than 6 mm. There are an increasing number of reports of
