Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a benign, chronic non-caseating breast disease, often mistaken for breast cancer. It usually affects women of child-bearing age. The treatment for IGM is inconclusive. In the past, surgical intervention was suggested due to the possibility of malignancy. However, in recent reports, corticosteroid therapy has been used with a good response. We present a case of a female with IGM who was treated successfully with 0.8 mg/kg/day prednisolone.
特发性肉芽肿性乳腺炎(IGM)是一种良性慢性非干酪样乳腺疾病,常被误诊为乳腺癌。它通常影响育龄女性。IGM的治疗尚无定论。过去,由于存在恶性变的可能性,建议进行手术干预。然而,在最近的报道中,皮质类固醇疗法已被使用且效果良好。我们报告一例患有IGM的女性患者,她接受0.8mg/kg/天的泼尼松龙治疗后成功治愈。
