Abstract
- Mammary tuberculosis is exceptional in developed countries. It can mimic an abscess or a granulomatous mastitis. In subjects coming from endemic areas, it is necessary to suspect a tuberculosis infection in case of recurrent mastitis refractory to antibiotics. Positivity of QuantiferonâTB Gold assay can help to confirm the clinical suspicion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
