title: Galactocoele of childhood--a case report.
abstract: A 31-month old boy with unilateral breast enlargement was found at surgical exploration to have a milk cyst whose lining epithelium was denuded in patches with chronic inflammatory cellular infiltration. The presence of foreign-body giant cells suggests involution of the secretory epithelium due to pressure effects of repeated trauma from attempted expression of the cyst contents.
