Abstract

The aim is to shed light on a rare form of breast cancer occurring at the axillary tail of spence. Presentations may be delayed as many differential diagnoses may be considered. Diagnostic imaging will include the mammography, ultrasound, MRI and tissue diagnosis. We report three cases with similar clinical and histological presentations despite the age difference. Standard radiological and histopathological evaluations were employed to reach the diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) of the axillary tail.
