{Abstract}: We describe the case of two lactating mothers with breast abscesses who refused invasive interventions. In the first case, a mother developed a 10 mm abscess and refused needle aspiration. Under ultrasonography (US) follow-up she was treated with antibiotics until the abscess disappeared on the US scan, while fully breastfeeding. In the second case, a woman with a large abscess refused invasive interventions. We followed the recommendations in case of breast Adenitis, first to nurse the baby from the affected breast and then squeezing regularly the lump to drain the pus. In this study, we demonstrate that this procedure is also beneficial in the case of breast abscesses. Under antibiotic treatment, the abscess was completely resolved on the US scan after 23 days. In conclusion, when invasive intervention is refused in the case of breast abscess, successful treatment can be applied by using effective breast drainage, US follow-up, and aggressive antibiotic therapy.
