The document provides details on the anatomy of the female breast:
- The breast is made up of 15-20 lobules of glandular tissue embedded in fat, separated by fibrous septa and ligaments. Each lobule drains into lactiferous ducts that empty into the nipple.
- The blood supply comes from branches of the axillary, internal thoracic, and intercostal arteries. Lymphatic drainage is primarily to the axillary nodes but also to internal mammary nodes.
- During pregnancy and lactation, the breast enlarges as alveoli develop from the ducts to produce milk. After weaning or menopause, the secretory tissue undergoes involution.
