Aims: We designed this study to evaluate the clinical status, duration of remission, remission rates, and treatment algorithm in patients with IGM during a 5-year follow-up period after immunosuppressive therapy.
Sarcoidosis is an immune-mediated multisystem condition of unknown etiology, characterized by non-caseating granulomatous inflammation. While it commonly affects the lungs and the reticuloendothelial system, it can affect any organ. Most of such cases involve the central nervous system, but the condition rarely presents with symptoms related to hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction.

Article Synopsis
- Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis (IGM) is a rare benign inflammatory condition affecting the breast, often challenging to diagnose.
- A case study highlights a 45-year-old woman who developed IGM after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for stage II invasive ductal carcinoma, eventually requiring modified radical mastectomy and steroid treatment.
- There is limited literature on IGM, and existing treatment guidelines are not well-established, complicating management approaches.
