USMA, Andrés et al. Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis with Responses to Immunosuppressive Treatment: Two Case Report. Rev Cuba Reumatol [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.2, e797.  Epub 01-Ago-2020. ISSN 1817-5996.

Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology and infrequent presentation. Confusion, delayed and mistaken in diagnosis has been atribuided to the similar clinical manifestation with breast carcinoma, added to the ignorance of this entity, that's why histopathology is a fundamental requirement for the correct diagnosis of this disease. We present two cases of female patients with clinical symptoms of chronic mastitis, in whom a diagnosis of idiopathic granulomatous mastitis was made after ruling out infectious and neoplastic causes.

Palabras clave : idiopathic granulomatous mastitis; inflammatory disease of the breast; mastitis; breast neoplasms.
