Differential diagnosis on ectopic lymph node-resulting mass and fibroadenoma of breast, galactoma and breast cancer is analyzed through the report of rare superficial ectopic lymph node of right breast. B-ultrasound scan, mammography of breast and other auxiliary examination ways can be definitely applied to the preliminary understanding of mass properties, and fine needle aspiration cytology and pathological examination of living tissues can be utilized to provide histological evidences to further confirm diagnosis. Useful reference is offered to the diagnosis and the treatment for common clinical diseases of breast.
