Nonpuerperal breast abscess (NPBA) has different etiology as compared to the mastitis occurring in post partum women. The condition presents either as acute suppurative infection or chronic type. Organisms usually implicated are Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase negative staphylococci, and anaerobes. Mostly the infection is polymicrobial in nature. Herein, we report the isolation of Enterococcus faecalis from a case of acute suppurative NPBA.
非产褥期乳腺脓肿（NPBA）与产后女性发生的乳腺炎病因不同。该病症表现为急性化脓性感染或慢性类型。通常涉及的病原体是金黄色葡萄球菌、凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌和厌氧菌。大多数感染本质上是多微生物的。在此，我们报告从一例急性化脓性NPBA病例中分离出粪肠球菌。
