[Breast tuberculosis is a rare cause of breast abscess].

Isolated secondary breast tuberculosis (TB) is an uncommon entity. This is a case report of a 27-year-old female who presented with a tumour in the breast. After four months with tedious examinations a positive polymerase chain reaction for TB was finally found, and the patient recovered after ten months of TB therapy and drainage of the abscess.

[Ductal carcinoma in situ].

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a premalignant lesion in the breast. It is often asymptomatic and diagnosed by screening mammography. DCIS is treated in line with low-risk invasive breast cancer including mastectomy or breast-conserving treatment plus radiotherapy, implicating a risk of both physical and psychological side effects.
