Diabetic mastopathy is the occurrence of lymphocytic mastitis and stromal fibrosis in men as well as women having long-standing diabetes. Clinical and radiological appearance can raise a suspicion of malignancy and result in unnecessary biopsy. As these lesions are known to recur; failure to recognise them can have devastating results. A case of diabetic mastopathy is therefore presented for the knowledge and benefit of all so that unnecessary surgery can be avoided.
糖尿病性乳腺病是指长期患有糖尿病的男性和女性发生淋巴细胞性乳腺炎和间质纤维化。其临床和影像学表现可能会引发对恶性肿瘤的怀疑,从而导致不必要的活检。由于已知这些病变会复发,未能识别它们可能会产生灾难性后果。因此,本文介绍一例糖尿病性乳腺病病例,以供大家了解并从中受益,从而避免不必要的手术。
