Welcome to the ePoster Viewing Panel of AICOG 2025

Introduction-Granulomatous mastitis is an inflammatory condition of non-infectious origin that specifically affects breast tissue. From a histopathological point of view, it is caused by a granulomatous inflammatory response containing giant cells.Its etiology is unknown. Granulomatous mastitis generally occurs in young women, often after a breast-feeding period, and within a period of 5 years following childbirth. Aims and objectives- The aim of this study is to describe the clinical and radiological presentation of granulomatous mastitis. Materials and methods-We retrospectively reviewed the clinical ,radiological , histopathological data of an antenatal mother with histologically proven granulomatous mastitis Results-Granulomatous mastitis is diagnosed clinically and histologically. Early recognition and treatment is needed. Conclusion- Incisional drainage and antibiotic therapy, rather than steroids and surgery, are useful for treating granulomatous mastitis during pregnancy. The condition can also be effectively managed during delivery. Abstinence from breastfeeding and steroidal therapy after delivery have also proven to be effective in managing this disease. The use of steroids during pregnancy should, however, be treated with caution, taking their side effects into consideration.
