Tuberculous mastitis: A masquerading face of granulomatous mastitis.

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) mastitis is a rare form of granulomatous mastitis. We aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients diagnosed with TB mastitis.

Materials And Methods: A descriptive study was carried out on patients who were reported to national tuberculosis control authorities as having TB mastitis between 2003 and 2021.

The effect of freezing on the immunoprofile of breast carcinoma cells.

Background: Intraoperative frozen section procedure may be required in some operations performed for breast masses.

Aims: We investigated the effect of frozen section procedure on the immunoprofile of breast carcinoma cells.

Study Design: Cross-sectional study.

Factors affecting breast cancer treatment delay in Turkey: a study from Turkish Federation of Breast Diseases Societies.

Background: One of the most important factors in breast cancer (BC) mortality is treatment delay. The primary goal of this survey was to identify factors affecting the total delay time (TDT) in Turkish BC patients.

Methods: A total of 1031 patients with BC were surveyed using a uniform questionnaire.

A new and simple predictive formula for non-sentinel lymph node metastasis in breast cancer patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes, and validation of 3 different nomograms in Turkish breast cancer patients.

Background: Nomogram accuracies for predicting non-sentinel lymph node (SLN) involvement vary between different patient populations. Our aim is to put these nomograms to test on our patient population and determine our individual predictive parameters affecting SLN and non-SLN involvement.

Patients And Methods: Data from 932 patients was analyzed.
