What Causes Lump On Right Breast With A Thick Cord Attached?
I have a chickpea sized lump on right breast with a thick 'cord' attached. The cord travels down breast into top of rib cage. Had mammo and ultrasound. Will see surgeon soon, but in meantime, could this be a non-malignant condition? I've never had cancer.

I would like to know your age? and whether anyone of your relatives (maternal side preferably) had breast cancer or ovarian cancer..?? or whether u have had ovarian mass too...?? so get a pelvis Ultrasound done too. yes obviously it could be a Non-malignant condition like for example fibroadenosis..but i can comment on that only after knowing the above details and if you can tell me the Mammo & Ultrasound reports.
I find this answer helpful
