5.  Right  Breast  #3:  This  breast  shows  a 

retracted  nipple  with  “orangeskin”  effect, 

and on careful palpation, a mass can be felt 

immediately  under  the  nipple.    The  breast 

represents  a  carcinoma  in  one  of  the  milk 

ducts. 

6.  Left Breast #3:  This form of breast cancer 

(scirrhus  carcinoma)  is  one  of  the  more 

commonly  encountered  malignant  tumors 

of  the  breast.    When  palpating,  note  the 

infiltrating nature of the growth.  It has no well-

defined borders and cannot be moved within 

the breast.
