Primary tuberculosis of the breast unlike carcinoma is rare, but secondary lesions from cervical and axillary tuberculous lymphadenitis are not uncommon. In this case, a 60-year-old woman presented with ulcerated axillary lymph node swelling and breast lump. Biopsy of the breast lump and lymph node confirmed tuberculous granuloma. She was commenced on anti-tuberculous chemotherapy and wound dressing. Her wounds and sinuses healed satisfactorily before being discharged to continue her treatment at home. She was however lost to followup.
与乳腺癌不同，原发性乳腺结核很少见，但由颈部和腋窝结核性淋巴结炎引起的继发性病变并不罕见。在该病例中，一名60岁女性出现腋窝淋巴结溃疡肿大及乳房肿块。乳房肿块和淋巴结活检证实为结核性肉芽肿。她开始接受抗结核化疗及伤口换药。在出院回家继续治疗之前，她的伤口和窦道愈合情况良好。然而，她随后失访了。
