Recently we experienced a case manifested by a lump in both breast that mimicked carcinoma but was found to be a vasculitis of the giant cell type. Our case was characterized histologically by granulomatous arteritis involving small to medium sized arteries of the breast without involvement of the temporal artery. We described the clinical and pathologic features of a case of giant cell arteritis of the breast and reviewed the eight previously reported cases in foreign literature.
最近,我们遇到一例表现为双侧乳房肿块的病例,该肿块疑似癌,但经检查发现是巨细胞型血管炎。我们的病例在组织学上的特征为肉芽肿性动脉炎,累及乳房的中小动脉,颞动脉未受累。我们描述了一例乳房巨细胞动脉炎的临床和病理特征,并回顾了国外文献中先前报道的8例病例。
