Case Description

Breast Lumps – Not Palpable: Role of Correct Clinical Examination focuses on the challenges of identifying breast lesions that are not detectable on routine palpation. The webinar will emphasize the importance of systematic clinical breast examination techniques and correlating clinical findings...

Case Summary

  • Clinical suspicion for non-palpable breast lesions should arise from subtle symptoms like bloody or watery nipple discharge (unilateral and spontaneous), persistent nipple itching not resolving with treatment, or transient skin changes. Evaluation should also encompass a thorough clinical examination including all breast quadrants, inframammary crease, and axilla.
