Abstract


INTRODUCTION: Breast lump is a common pathology encountered by surgeons. Most of the breast lumps are benign. Proper investigations should be done to rule out malignancy as the cause.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: Details of 60 patients of benign breast lump were observed and recorded in this study.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Benign breast lump is more common in young adults. Fibroadenoma (43.3%) is the most common cause. Other causes are Fibroadenosis, Breast cyst, Mastitis, Breast abscess, Antibioma, Duct ectasia, Phyllodes tumour and gynecomastia. Majority of these patients can be managed conservatively
