Outcomes from treatment of Granulomatous lobular mastitis
Background: Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) is an uncommon benign breast condition characterized by non-caseating Granulomatous inflammation arising from the lobules of the breast. Current therapeutic options include observation, percutaneous aspiration, antibiotics, steroids, methotrexate, and...

Results: There were 285 female patients, predominantly Hispanic (n = 265, 93%) with mean age of 35.6 ± 8.7 years at time of diagnosis.

Both duration of disease and recurrence rate were highest amongst patients treated with a surgical intervention. Conclusions: The self-limited course of disease and relatively low recurrence rate, in addition to longer disease duration and increased recurrence rate noted in patients treated with incision and drainage and/or surgical excision, appears to justify the infrequent use of surgical procedures in the management of GLM.Yuliya B.
