[1]The name of the entity is descriptive of the lesion; ADH is characterized by cellular proliferation (hyperplasia) within one or two breast ducts and (histomorphologic) architectural abnormalities, i.e. the cells are arranged in an abnormal or atypical way ...

    Usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH) is a benign lesion of the breast wherein cells look very similar to normal. It is a spectrum of changes that can range from minimal stratification of cells to proliferations that are just short of atypical ductal hyperplasia .

    Lymphoid hyperplasia is the rapid proliferation of normal lymphocytic cells that resemble lymph tissue which may occur with bacterial or viral infections. [1] The growth is termed hyperplasia which may result in enlargement of various tissue including an organ, or cause a cutaneous lesion .

    In patients with adenoid hyperplasia alone without accompanying indications or symptoms, conservative therapy, i.e., cautious waiting, is advised. [1] Furthermore, there is data indicating that people with adenoid hyperplasia may benefit from off-label intranasal corticosteroids. [22]
