Italian term

modificazioni mastosiche

Italian to English Medical Medical (general) pathology report - breast
This is from a gross description of a breast tissue biopsy:

"Restante parenchima con modificazioni mastosiche."

I've searched "mastic" and "mastotic" and don't find many examples of these. What does the term "mastosico" mean and how should I translate this little phrase?


Thank you / Grazie / Vielen Dank

I could find almost nothing online until I thought of looking in French!

Das hatte ich mich schon gedacht (wegen deiner "Vielen Dank"). Aber mit Französisch war ich mir nicht sicher. Ich freue mich, dass es hilft :)!

And I can sometimes write French correctly, also. Je sais lire LE français
