Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Breast abscesses are common more commonly allied with inflammatory process and have good response to treatment. Association of abscess with underlying malignancy is 4.3%, can be seen more commonly with primary squamous cell carcinoma breast rather than ductal carcinoma. Angiolipoma is the only benign neoplasm mentioned in the literature seen associated with breast abscess. We herein present an interesting case report of 35 year old female presented in surgical emergency with ruptured breast abscess and profuse bleeding from the abscess bed, hence compelling the surgeon to think of underlying malignancy and creating apprehension in a patient. As patient was found to be pancytopenic on routine blood investigations, bone marrow examination was performed and unpredictably patient turned out to be a case of hypo cellular marrow.
