'Not your average breast lump!'-Primary tuberculosis mimicking chronic abscess: A rare case report.

Primary breast tuberculosis is a rare disease under extrapulmonary tuberculosis category. It tends to affect females of reproductive age rather than postmenopausal women or prepubescent girls. This rare form of disease poses a challenge in diagnosing as imaging can mimic the appearance of both benign and malignant breast lesions. We describe a case of primary breast tuberculosis in a young female who presented with a persistent left breast lump. and was diagnosed with chronic left breast abscess. Histopathological examination of the lesion was consistent with granulomatous mastitis, secondary to mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. The patient was treated with a 6-month course of anti-tuberculosis drug with complete resolution of the symptoms and the left breast lesion on serial ultrasound imaging.
