• A modified sweat gland.

• Compartmentalized fat bounded by CT septa.

• Glandular lobules drained by 15-20 lactiferous ducts.

• Lactiferous ducts converge & open onto nipple.

• Areola surrounds nipple & conceals sebaceous glands • (i.e., produce lubrication for nipple).

• lies over the 2nd - 6th rib.

• Two-thirds rests on pectoralis major.

• One-third lies on the serratus anterior.

• The lower medial edge overlaps the upper part of the rectus sheath.

• Medially from the sternal edge, to the mid-axillary line

• 4 quadrants.

• Majority of cancers develop in upper outer quadrant.

• Large amount of glandular tissue here.

• An axillary tail

• Reteromammary space: is loose auroral tissue that separates then breast from the pectoralis major muscle.

• The retromammary space is often the site of of breast implantation due to its location away from key nerves and structure that support the breast.

• The tail of Spencer.

• Cooper’s ligament.

• Suspensory ligament of the breast.

• Fibrous septa anchor deep layer of skin to deep fascia.

• superfacial (avascular plane) separates the glandular portion and adipose portion.

• Tumors may grow through retromammary space.

• Subsequently invade deep fascia & pec. major m.

• Leads to fixation of malignant breast lesion to chest wall.

• Shortens suspensory (Cooper’s) ligs.

• Leads to irregular dimpling of skin or retraction of nipple

• Skin dimpling.

• Nipple retraction.

• Peau d'orange

• Lymphoedema of ipsilateral upper limb post-mastectomy.

• Penetrate deep surface of breast.

• Exhibit extensive branches. & anastomoses.

groups of axillary nodes

• Supr. drainage is via 1 group of interpectoral nodes

• Med. drainage is via 1 group of parasternal nodes

• Ultimate drainage is via subclavian lymph trunk to vv. (i.e., jxn. of subclavian v. & IJV)

• Pectoral nodes ( 4-5 nodes, most drainage).

• Subscapular (posterior) nodes (6-7),

• Lateral nodes (4-6).

• Central nodes (3-4), ?Neck?

• Apical nodes (6-12)

• Interpectoral (Rotter’s) nodes (1-4)

• Parasternal nodes

• Subscapular – subscapular vessels

• Humeral – distal (3rd) part of axillary v.

• Central – middle (2nd) part of axillary v.

• Apical – proximal (1st) part of axillary v.

• Interpectoral – pectoral vessels

• Parasternal – int. thoracic vessels

• 3 Levels of surgical dissections relative to pec. minor.

• Level I – below (lateral to) pec. minor

• Level II – deep to pec. minor

• Level III – above (medial to) pec. minor

• Cancer cells tend to spread along lymph passages

• Typical spread is supr./laterally to axillary lymph nodes

• Unilateral lymphatic blockage may occur

• Lymph (with cancer cells) can then drain to opposite side
