| Descripción: | The structure and function of the mammary gland has a complex mechanism, which responds to physical and hormonal stimuli to ensure proper and timely feeding of the newborn. Objective: To identify anatomopathological elements of the process of lactogenesis with forensic transcendence. Methodology: Review on the topic in the literature in English, Spanish and Portuguese, no more than 10 years of publication. The databases used were Medline, LILACS and SciELO, did not include dissertations. Conclusion: Although there are benign and malignant pathologies that can affect the normal process of lactogenesis, from the anatomical and physiological point of view there are also natural mechanisms such as congenital alterations and external mechanisms: physical, chemical and therapeutic, that can alter or injure this process, either iatrogenic effects or effects produced intentionally or non-intentionally, which could be permanent and generate some kind of disability. Due to the forensic repercussions, its correct diagnosis, differential diagnoses and etiological factors are elements that the expert should consider in cases of pathology and breast trauma. |
