SANTINO FIGUEROA, Ángel  y  VENECIA ROMERO, Flores. Breast surgical pathology in children and adolescents. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2012, vol.58, n.3, pp.177-182. ISSN 2304-5132.

Background: Breast pathology in children and adolescents is rare and usually benign. Most require only medical treatment and observation; however, some can have surgical indications. Objectives: To determine the 10-year experience at Hospital Infantil de Mexico's breast clinic in treatment of breast pathology in children. Design: Retrospective, trasversal and descriptive study. Setting: Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez, Mexico DF. Participants: Patients 2 to 18 year-old. Methods: Search of med-excision, polimastia by resection, gynecomastia by subcutaneical files of breast pathology treated surgically in the period 2001-ous mastectomy, fibrocystic breast disease by simple excision 2011. Main outcome measures: Breast pathology and surgical or subcutaneous mastectomy, virginal mammary hypertrophy treatment. Results: In 159 patients the most frequent pathology by subcutaneous mastectomy or mammary reduction, and giant on females was fibroadenoma, and gynecomastia in males. Fi-fibroadenoma by simple excision, subcutaneous mastectomy or broadenomata and adenomata were treated by total surgical mammary reduction. Conclusions: We consider that most breast pathology in children is usually benign and can be treated satisfactorily by adequate surgery. Although with low incidence malignant breast disease is also possible in this age group.
