Accessory breasts , also known as polymastia , supernumerary breasts , or mammae erraticae , is the condition of having an additional breast. Extra breasts may appear with or without nipples or areolae. It is a condition and a form of atavism which is most prevalent in male humans, and often goes untreated as it is mostly harmless.
