Abstract
Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a benign rare inflammatory disease of breast. Due to its uncommon etiology, treatment is still unknown. This study is aimed to determine the treatment method of IGM. Methods: In this prospective review of patients with IGM between 2010 and 2015 were included and their medical records, follow-up information and recurrence rate of IGM were evaluated. Results: In this study, 68.75% of patients (n=33) had palpable mass, 45.83% of patients (n=22) had breast pain, swelling, erythema and 20.83% of patients (n=10) had purulent drainage. Minimum follow-up duration was 24 (range 24–56) months. Conclusions: Steroid therapy such as prednisolone was effective in the treatment of Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis by reduction in inflammation.
