Residual Tissue : All of the breast tissue may not have been removed from the prior operation. I would definitely have this checked by a physician to make sure it is not suspicious. You can undergo re-excision surgery. They should definitely check a hormone panel and perform testicular exam to make sure there is no other medical reason for your recurrent breast enlargement (lump)
