Abstract: Accessory or ectopic breast tissue is residual breast tissue that persists after normal embryonic mammary development. It can occur anywhere along the embryonic mammary streak, but is most commonly located in the axilla. Accessory breast tissue can consist of any component of the breast and may be functional or non-functional and its development is hormone dependent like normal breasts. Overall, the prevalence of accessory breast tissue in women ranges from 0.4% to 6%, and in men, from 1% to 3% [1]. Usually they are asymptomatic and do not need any intervention unless they start causing discomfort. Diagnosis of accessory breast tissue is important because they are subject to all diseases of the breast including carcinomas [2]. Here we report a case of asymptomatic accessory breast tissue in bilateral chest wall of a 32-year Nepalese multi Para female patient
