MENENDEZ DIAZ, Carlos Antonio  y  SILVA BARRERA, Sheilly. Mama supernumeraria. Presentación de caso. ccm [online]. 2019, vol.23, n.2, pp.666-671.  Epub 30-Sep-2019. ISSN 1560-4381.

The presence or absence of mammary tissue, aureole or nipple, makes the difference among the 8 variants of the current Kajava classification, since the beginning of the 20th Century.

Such malformations appear in the 6% of female population. This case is about a 49 year- old black patient, who always lived with a 3th breast under her left armpit. Due to the discomfort when doing her daily activities and poor aesthetic, she decided to attend to a hospital located in the outskirts of Luanda, Angola. Echography revealed the presence of mammary tissue so an ambulatory surgery was decided. The peculiarity of this case led to this case presentation.

Palabras clave : breast; axilla; malformation; surgery; women.
