title: Benign heterotopic epithelial inclusions in axillary lymph nodes. Histological and immunohistochemical patterns.
abstract: Benign heterotopic epithelial inclusions in axillary lymph nodes are an extremely rare condition that must be differentiated from metastatic carcinoma. We describe 2 histologically different examples of benign epithelial inclusions in nonsentinel axillary lymph nodes, each with an unusual clinical presentation.
