Mammary Tuberculosis is rare, with an incidence of 4% of all breast diseases in TB endemic countries. The clinical presentation can be non-specific and may mimic malignancy of the breast. Tis is a case report of a middle-aged male patient presenting with an ulcerated lump of the breast, diagnosed as mammary tuberculosis. Breast tuberculosis is extremely rare in males. The clinical presentation is varied and a high index of clinical suspicion is extremely essential for diagnosis with confirmation by cytology and histology. Anti-tubercular treatment (ATT) is the mainstay of treatment, with surgery being required in few indicated cases

Background: Breast involvement of tuberculosis (TB) is well known but uncommon. It can resemble other diseases, including breast cancer, and diagnosis is quite difficult. So, when facing a breast lesion, a possible tubercular etiology should always be born in mind, relying on qualified laboratories to confirm the diagnosis. Case Report: We describe a 42-year-old woman with a mammary fistula complicating a post-traumatic lump. A critical analysis of the diagnostic process was performed together with a review of the literature, also considering the potential role of trauma in inducing such a rare complication.

Tuberculosis is quite prevalent in developing countries. It can affect any organ in the human body. Apart from pulmonary tuberculosis, it does not usually present with its constitutional symptoms in other organs. On many occasions, tuberculosis of organs other than pulmonary Koch’s is misdiagnosed. One such organ is breast. Tuberculosis of breast is a rare condition and its presentation as that of breast cancer heaps further misery. A case of tubercular mastitis diagnosed initially as metastatic breast cancer is presented here. Patient was managed conservatively.
