lactiferous

However new research suggests that lactiferous sinus does not exist.

The lactiferous duct should be normal without any retraction.

The majority of breast diseases either originate from lactiferous ducts or are closely related.

Each lobule has a lactiferous duct that drains into openings in the nipple.

Lactiferous duct development occurs in females in response to circulating hormones.

But a functional lactiferous duct tree can be formed again when a female is pregnant again.

Lactiferous sinuses do not, in fact, exist.

The lactiferous ducts are mildly retracted but do not need to be cut for the release of fibrosis.

Under the areola are lactiferous ducts.

The fibrosis is remarkable and lactiferous ducts are short and severely retracted.

Linnaeus described mammals as: Animals that suckle their young by means of lactiferous teats.

They are lactiferous, producing latex, which may be milky or watery, coloured or plain.

When a woman is not lactating, the lactiferous duct is frequently blocked by a keratin plug.

Breast duct endoscopy is a method used to examine the lining of the lactiferous ducts to look for abnormal tissue.

The females have four teats defining the corners of a rectangular slab of lactiferous fatty tissue.

Lactiferous ducts are lined by a columnar epithelium supported by myoepithelial cells.

Latex is the milky fluid derived from the lactiferous cells of the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis.

Those nipples usually disappear before birth, but sometimes remain, resulting in supernumerary nipples, which uncommonly have lactiferous glands attached.

Surgery may also damage the lactiferous ducts and the nerves of the nipple-areola complex (NAC).

The last section of the lactiferous ducts is always lined with squamous keratinizing epithelium which appears to have important physiological functions.

When the lactiferous duct tree is almost ready, "leaves" alveoli are differentiated from luminal epithelial cells and added at the end of each branch.

Lactiferous ducts form a tree branched system connecting the lobules of the mammary gland to the tip of the nipple.

It has been speculated that either the direct toxic effect or hormonal changes related to smoking could cause squamous metaplasia of lactiferous ducts.

They are distributed throughout the body of the breast; approximately two-thirds of the lactiferous tissue is within 30 mm of the base of the nipple.

Zuska's Disease, also known as lactiferous fistula, also known as subareolar abscess or periductal mastitis.
