Conclusion
In sum and in short, embryologically, anatomically, and histologically, the breast is as much skin and subcutaneous fat as any other part of the integument and of tissue beneath it.
From the Ackerman Academy of Dermatopathology where Dr. Gyorfi was a fellow, Dr. Tsou is a fellow, Dr. Gottlieb and Dr. Ackerman are co-directors.
