本研究描述了一例囊性中性粒细胞性肉芽肿性乳腺炎。患者的临床和放射学发现与特发性肉芽肿性乳腺炎一致。囊性中性粒细胞性肉芽肿性乳腺炎是乳腺炎的一种罕见亚型,具有与棒状杆菌物种相关的独特组织学模式。由于现有数据的缺乏,囊性中性粒细胞性肉芽肿性乳腺炎的诊断和治疗仍然是一个重大挑战。本研究描述了囊性中性粒细胞性肉芽肿性乳腺炎的经典病例,包括临床,放射学和组织病理学发现。据我们所知,这是第一例记录治疗前后的放射学发现。本报告鼓励在乳腺炎的鉴别诊断中考虑该实体。
The present study describes a case of cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis. The clinical and radiological findings of the patient were consistent with idiopathic granulomatous mastitis. Cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis is a rare subtype of mastitis with a distinct histological pattern that is associated with the Corynebacterium species. The diagnosis and treatment of cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis remains a significant challenge due to the scarcity of available data. The present study describes a classic case of cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis that includes clinical, radiological and histopathological findings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case documenting radiological findings before and after treatment. This report encourages the consideration of this entity in the differential diagnoses of mastitis.
