Abstract

Mammary tuberculosis is an illness accounting for less than 0.1% of breast lesions. We present a case from our service and discuss the radiological findings from mammography, ultrasound scan and magnetic resonance, including kinetic curves. Mammary tuberculosis is an unusual condition and such reports are important in relation to the differential diagnoses versus breast cancer and pyogenic abscess.
