BARRIS, Margarita et al. Breast tuberculosis. Report of two cases. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2023, vol.83, n.5, pp.836-840. ISSN 0025-7680.
Two cases of mammary tuberculosis (TB) are present ed, one of them with additional pleural and lymph node involvement. Both were HIV-negative, with no history of previous TB, with long-standing breast lesions. Both presented a successful outcome with antituberculosis treatment. Breast TB is a very rare pathology that is dif ficult to diagnose. The cases are presented to consider their differential diagnosis in patients with chronic mas titis and/or nodular or ulcerated lesions of the breast. Multidisciplinary management is recommended.
