ABSTRACT

Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics of the patients studied with Mastitis idiopathic granulomatous (MGI), also to provide therapeutic tools for these kind of patients.
Material and Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study of 21 patients with MGI who underwent excision, justified and guided by a previous radiological study, with a complete file and a histopathology report that confirmed the pathological entity.
Results: We included 21 patients with an average age of 42 years (SD +/- 12.5 years) 7/21 were in the menopause stage. The clinical presentation was: 3 asymptomatic, 2 with sporulation, 14 with mammary tumor and 2 with mastalgia. The radiological report of BIRADS was: 3 = III, 8 = IVa, 8 = IVb and 2 = IVc. Surgical resection was performed at 19/21 and at 14/19, prednisone was administered preoperatively.
Conclusions: The combined use of medical and surgical treatment improves the functional and cosmetic prognosis in the patient, as well as decreases the risk of inadvertent coincidence of a breast carcinoma.
