270
Q

What is the axillary process of the breast?

A

Structure of the breast that allows for drainage of lymph fluid from the breast into the lymph nodes

271
Q

What is the difference between lactiferous ducts vs. sinuses?

A
  • Ducts drain lobe secretions towards the sinuses
  • Anatomically the ducts precede the sinuses
272
Q

What is the retromammary space?

A

Space which contains a small amount of fatty tissue that allows for some degree of movement of the breast gland over the underlying muscles
