Abstract
Abstract: Breast abscess is less common in developed countries due to improved puerperal hygiene, nutrition, early administration of antibiotics and standard of living, breast abscess remains a morbid condition among lactating women in developing countries. Breast abscess is a most common cause of morbidity in puerperal women. Breast abscess ranges from mastitis to deep abscess. The Incidence of lactation breast abscess is high in India. The aim of this study is to compare the results of ultrasound guided aspiration and incision and drainage in the management of breast abscess. This is a comparative study between ultrasound guided aspiration and incision and drainage consist of 50 patients who underwent both the treatment alternatively. Even though recurrence rate is slightly high in USG guided aspiration when compared to incision and drainage, USG guided aspiration is effective method of treatment in breast abscess with good patient satisfaction. Even though recurrence rate is slightly high in USG guided aspiration when compared to incision and drainage, USG guided aspiration is effective method of treatment in breast abscess with good patient satisfaction.
