What is an axillary breast lump, exactly?

An axillary breast lump, also known as an armpit lump or underarm lump, is the development of lymph nodes, fat tissues, or axillary breast tissue in the axilla (underarm).  Depending on the reason, this tissue development might be transitory or permanent, with considerations including distinctions between axillary breast tissue vs armpit fatInitially, the bulge just affects the person's appearance, but with time, the mass may cause discomfort and irritation. An important consideration is whether axillary breast tissue is dangerous in such cases.

If you have extra tissues in the axilla and wish to get rid of them, ace medicare experts can help. We use minimally invasive liposuction to remove the fat tissues and minimum excision to remove the glandular tissues and lymph nodes.

Treatment

Diagnosis

The doctor examines the patient physically to examine the tissues present under the arm. To define the kind of tissue in the lump, anisotropy (tissue stiffness) and hypertrophy (tissue thickness) are measured.

The doctor suggests the following tests for further investigation:

  • Ultrasound- This test aids in determining the structure of the underarm lump as well as any abnormalities in the tissues (if any).
  • A mammogram is indicated to rule out the chance of breast cancer.
  • Ace Medicare experts use liposuction and excision procedures to remove the bulge under the arm. The method is carried out in the phases listed below:
Procedure 

  • Initially, the patient will be given anaesthetic. Yet, in rare circumstances, local Anesthesia may be administered.
  • The surgeon will mark the incision site and place the liposuction needle into the desired region. If laser liposuction is utilised, the surgeon will place the laser fibre in the desired location.
  • A suction device is used to break down and retrieve fat from the underarm.
  • If the breast glandular tissues have reached the underarm region, the surgeon will remove them by a 3-4 cm incision with a knife or laser.
  • Stitches or surgical glue will be used to seal the wound.
The complete treatment takes 45 minutes to an hour at most. After the surgery, the patient is discharged the same day.
