Galactocele Surgery

Galactocele is a milk-filled tumor that is typical in young females who have been pregnant or breast-feeding. The cyst layer is a standard cuboid or plain epithelium, with nothing to concern regarding. A female who is worried about an unusual ‘gentle and adjustable’ lump or breast pain would usually bring the symptom to the notice of the practitioner, who can review the patient to breast cancer screening, so to be specific.

Galactoceles are caused by some kind of blockage in the breast ducts during or just after lactation is halted. Although breast carcinomas may often cause a blockage that results in a galactocele, these lesions are due to more frequent and benign causes in the majority of women.

A galactocele is commonly present in the breast as a painless lump. These lumps form over a couple of weeks to months. Lesions may be uni-or bilateral and may present as single or multiple nodules. The suction product from the cyst is exposed to a biochemical study, which reveals varying amounts of protein, lactose, and fats. Galactocele can look white because of the milk inside it. If the milk is young, it has the normal viscosity, but if it is aged, it also appears thicker. Galactocele has different effects on mammography, based on the quantity of fat and protein and the density of the substance.
