Abstract
The absence of nipple–areola complex is a rare entity and is always associated with other anomalies. This paper described a case of bilateral athelia without other alterations.
The atrophy of the dense mesenchyme due to absence of parathyroid hormone-related protein produced in epithelium may lead to nipple involution. Further cases should be studied to corroborate this theory.
