Introduction: Ectopic Breast Tissue (EBT) is still a condition seen as sporadic (2-5%), and it is often delayed and ignored due to lack of awareness, whereas it may be exposed to malignant diseases. it must be always kept in mind for differential diagnosis of an EBT. We think that this case report is important because EBT associated with fi bro-adenoma is a quiet rare condition. Method:A 41-year-old female who has just given birth presented in bilateral axillary EBT with fi broadenoma. In order to present the nursing management to our case during hospitalization, Orem's (2001) self-care defi cit theory and North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) classifi cation system were used.Results: Both axillary nodules were swelling and painful during lactation, measuring 6 cm × 3 cm and of 4 cm × 3 cm in left and right axilla respectively. There was no nipple or areola over the both axillary nodules. However, we encountered a nipple without areola under the right breast. An excisional biopsy was performed under local anesthesia for the nipple and it revealed EBT. An EBT with fi bro-adenoma was detected in the cytopathology of fi ne needle biopsy performed in both axillary nodules. Mammograms of both breasts were normal, no carcinoma was found. Based on Orem's self-care theory, this problem which has occurred as acute, led to the patient experience discomfort, decrease in daily activities, aesthetic concern, self-care problem and anxiety related to breast health. A patient-specifi c nursing plan was applied using NANDA classifi cation system and each process of self-care needs was evaluated with patient data. Our case was discharged on the 7th day without any complications. After one week, her sutures were removed when she came for control examination. Conclusion:It was determined that our patient entered the normalization process, regained her selfconfi dence and self-care power.
