Abstract
Melanoma in situ of the nipple is an uncommon diagnosis, with only a few reports in the literature. Due to the variety of pathologies that can affect the nipple-areola complex, the diagnosis can be challenging. In this case report we describe a patient with cosmetic bilateral breast implants who presented with eczema of the left nipple-areola complex and suspicious microcalcifications in the lower inner quadrant of the ipsilateral breast on mammography, subsequently diagnosed with nipple melanoma and concomitant ductal carcinoma in situ.
乳头原位黑色素瘤是一种不常见的诊断，文献中仅有少数报道。由于影响乳头乳晕复合体的病变多种多样，因此诊断可能具有挑战性。在本病例报告中，我们描述了一名双侧乳房植入美容假体的患者，她出现左侧乳头乳晕复合体湿疹，乳房 X 光检查发现同侧乳房内下象限有可疑微钙化，随后被确诊为乳头黑色素瘤并伴有乳腺导管原位癌。
