Pilonidal sinus is a common entity, most often occurring in the natal cleft. Pilonidal sinus with abscess formation has also been described in hairdressers in the interdigital space. We report a case of pilonidal abscess of the breast in a hairdresser, a rarely reported site, which requires awareness on the clinician's part of this occupational risk, for appropriate management and post-surgery advice on prevention. It is particularly important to impart such information to the reporting pathologist who is key to making this histological diagnosis.
藏毛窦是一种常见病症，最常发生于臀裂。在指间间隙的理发师中也有藏毛窦伴脓肿形成的报道。我们报告一例理发师乳房藏毛脓肿病例，该部位鲜有报道，临床医生需意识到这种职业风险，以便进行恰当处理并提供术后预防建议。将此类信息告知负责组织学诊断的报告病理学家尤为重要。
