Abstract

Adenomatosis (adenoma, papillary adenoma, florid papillomatosis) of the nipple is a rare benign disorder involving the nipple witch can be mistaken clinically for Paget's disease and pathologically can be misinterpreted as an adenocarcinoma. It occurs mostly in middle-aged women and is extremely rare in adolescents and children. We report a 55-year-old man with an adenomatosis of the nipple evolving positively after surgery.
