I am Dr. Banumathy
anatomist from Madurai,
Tamilnadu, India.
Today we shall discuss the
Lymphatic Drainage of Breast.
0:14
Breast are
hemispherical swellings
situated in the pectoral region,
one on either side of midline.
They are rudimentary in males,
they develop after
puberty in the females.
It is a secondary sexual
character in females,
they secrete milk
after childbirth.
0:40
The skin presents the
pigmented circular areola
and the conical elevation
nipple in the center.
The superficial fascia splits
to enclose the mammary gland.
The gland is a
modified sweat gland,
it is an exocrine gland
drained by ducts and
also an apocrine gland where
a part of the cell is
sent out as secretial.
Deep to the gland is
the deep layer of
superficial fascia and deep
fascia or pectoral fascia.
The pectoral fascia covers
the pectoralis major muscle.
1:32
Carcinoma breast is a
common clinical condition.
The carcinomatous
breast cells spread
mostly through the lymphatics.
Hence, lymphatic drainage of
breast becomes important.
Lymphatic drainage of breast is
complex, extensive,
and variable.
To have a better understanding
of the lymphatic drainage
and knowledge of the anatomy
of the breast becomes essential.
First, we shall see the
anatomy of the breast.
