duct ectasia with an exceptionally dilated duct (9mm in caliber) located at 9 o’clock in the right retroareolar<br />

region. Two irregular masses isoechoic to breast parenchyma, the largest (6x3mm) are seen about 1.2cm away<br />

from the nipple (arrows). B. Power <strong>Doppler</strong> application showed a central vascular stalk in the larger lesion.<br />

specimen.<br />
