FINAL DIAGNOSIS

My doctor told me today that my lump came back as
Fibroadenoma with Epithelial Hyperplasia and aprocrine metaplasia
focal ductal ectasai with Periductal Chronic inflamation (inflammation)

what are all these terminologies? Can someone explain to me in plain English? Thanks

He wants to follow up in six month the other two kissing lessions in my breast

Apocrine metaplasia denotes a benign lesion that has no increased risk for the development of breast cancer. It is most commonly seen in the lining of cysts. Epithelial Hyperplasia means that the cells from the lining of a structure are present in numbers more than would be normally expected.         Regards......
