The axillary tail of Spence, also known as the tail of Spence, is an anatomical extension of the breast tissue into the axilla (armpit region). It is a normal variant of breast anatomy, where the breast tissue extends from the superolateral quadrant of the breast into the axilla, forming a tail-like projection.
