AKSESUAR MEME TANISI ALAN HASTALARIMIZIN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Abstract

Memenin sayı ve yerleşim bozuklukları süt kıvrımının gerilemesindeki sorunlar nedeniyle oluşmaktadır. Ektopik (aksesuar) meme dokusunda sadece meme başı varsa politeli; areola ve glanduler doku varsa polimasti olarak isimlendirilmektedir. Politeli çocuklarda memenin en sık görülen anomalisidir. Büyük çocuklarda nevüs veya deri katlantısı ile karışabilen küçük pigmente lezyon olarak da ortaya çıkabilmektedir. Sonuç olarak politeli hastalarda hiçbir klinik yakınmaya neden olmayan yapısal lezyondur. Politeli kozmetik açıdan önemli olması dışında böbrek anomalileri ile birlikte olma ihtimali sebebi ile idrar tahlili ve böbrek ultrasonu yapılması da akılda bulundurulmalıdır.
