Abstract

Introducción: the fibroepithelial polyp was initially described by Norris and Taylor in 1996; hormonal decontrol and elevated levels of estrogen and progestogen during pregnancy can facilitate their development. Soft fibroids are pedunculated lesions of varying size that occur mainly in the armpit and neck. It is very important the association with pregnancy, as occurs is this case. It can be presented with multiple forms (sessile and pedunculated polyps). Case report: the case of a female patient with a breast fibroepithelial polyp that began when she was pregnant 10 years ago and found a small tumor on the skin next to the nipple that grew as the pregnancy progressed is reported. Conclusions: due to the rarity of its location, this report is made.
