An abnormal finding related to the size and symmetry of the breasts is which of the following?
a. enlargement of the breast on the side of the dominant arm
b. nipples pointing upward and laterally
c. significant unilateral reduction of breast tissue
d. supernumerary nipples
C
It is not unusual for there to be some difference in the size of the breasts. The breast on the side of the dominant arm is often larger. Nipples should point upward and laterally or outward and downward. Significant unilateral reduction of breast tissue may result from trauma, mastectomy, or breast reduction. Supernumerary nipples are a variant of normal and have no pathological significance in either males or females. They form from incomplete atrophy of the galactic band and create extra nipples along the milk line.
