A galactocele is a retention cyst containing milk or a milky substance that is usually located in the mammary glands caused by a protein plug that block off the outlet. It is seen in lactating women on cessation of lactation and rarely in infants and children. It presents as a large, soft, fluctuating lump in the lower part of breast. A case of galactocele in a 2year old child is reported with review of literature for its rarity.
