[[Breast lumps]], or [[Breast lumps|breast palpable masses]], are the second most common breast symptoms, after [[mastalgia]]. These must be distinguished from the normal nodularity of the breast.<ref>{{Cite book  | last1 = Kumar | first1 = Vinay | last2 = Abbas | first2 = Abul K. | last3 = Fausto | first3 = Nelson. | last4 = Robbins | first4 = Stanley L.

Breast lumps causes can be classified to various groups according to gender and age. Causes of female breast mass could be  [[cancer]], [[inflammatory]], [[infectious]], [[hormonal]] imbalance, [[trauma]]. Male breast enlargement identified as [[gynecomastia]]. Causes of [[gynecomastia]] may be multifactorial, [[hormonal]] imbalance, [[genetic]] factors, [[endocrine]] factors.Breast lumps may develop among children and adolescents, however, there are probably benign ones and related to peripubertal and [[pubertal]] phases.
[[Breast lumps]] are more commonly found in [[Menopause classification|premenopausal]] women, becoming less frequent with age.<ref>{{Cite book  | last1 = Kumar | first1 = Vinay | last2 = Abbas | first2 = Abul K. | last3 = Fausto | first3 = Nelson. | last4 = Robbins | first4 = Stanley L.

The most common etiologies are [[Fibroadenoma|fibroadenomas]], [[Breast cyst|cysts]] and [[Breast cancer|carcinomas]]. The probability of malignancy on a [[breast lump]] increases with age.<ref>{{Cite book  | last1 = Kumar | first1 = Vinay | last2 = Abbas | first2 = Abul K. | last3 = Fausto | first3 = Nelson. | last4 = Robbins | first4 = Stanley L. (Stanley Leonard) | last5 = Cotran | first5 = Ramzi S. | title = Robbins and Cotran pathologic basis of disea | date = 2005 | publisher = Elsevier Saunders | location = Philadelphia | isbn = 978-0-7216-0187-8 | pages =  }}</ref>
Factors like the woman’s age and physical characteristics of the mass, palpated by the clinician, may provide clues about its etiology on an initial assessment. However, a definitive diagnosis must be pursued, since all [[breast lumps]] warrant thorough evaluation.<ref>{{Cite book  | last1 = Bickley | first1 = Lynn S. | last2 = Szilagyi | first2 = Peter G. | last3 = Bates | first3 = Barbara | title = Bates' guide to physical examination and history taki | date = 2009 | publisher = Wolters Kluwer Health/Lippincott Williams  Wilkins | location = Philadelphia | isbn = 0-7817-8058-6 | pages =  }}</ref>
Every [[Breast lumps|palpable mass]], whose benign nature cannot be appropriately determined by ultrasound, will require biopsy for tissue diagnosis. This also applies to lesions that cannot be visualized by [[mammography]]. The role of the [[mammography]] in this setting is also to look for other coincident lesions that may not be palpated.<ref>{{Cite book  | last1 = Andreoli | first1 = Thomas E. | last2 = Cecil | first2 = Russell L.
