Abstrakt: Breast conditions in pediatric and adolescent patients vary from benign congenital changes to pathological findings. Although most breast conditions are benign, there are rare cases of malignancy that are important to identify during development. As such, it is critical to understand the classification and management of the different pediatric and adolescent breast conditions that might present to clinicians who care for pediatric and adolescent patients. In this review, congenital, benign, and malignant pediatric/adolescent breast conditions are discussed.
