Abstract
Accessory Breasts can occur anywhere along the milk line extending from the axilla to the groin. In view of cosmetic reasons, accessory breasts are removed. We present three cases of accessory breasts with intra-cystic papillary carcinoma in them. Intra-cystic papillary carcinoma is a rare carcinoma that has finger like projections. It has a good prognosis and hence a simple excision biopsy is enough for these patients.
