AI Article Synopsis
- Eosinophilic mastitis is a rare type of mastitis, with limited documented cases.
- A 48-year-old woman showed signs of this condition when her right breast developed asymmetry, but no issues were found in initial imaging tests.
- A biopsy guided by tomosynthesis was carried out to confirm the diagnosis, highlighting the importance of recognizing this rare condition for better future treatment and management.
Article Abstract
Eosinophilic mastitis is a very rare form of mastitis with few reported cases in the literature. This is a case of eosinophilic mastitis in a 48-year-old woman which presented as a screen detected right breast developing asymmetry. No sonographic abnormalities were visualized on diagnostic workup, and subsequent tomosynthesis-guided biopsy was performed. Knowledge of this rare entity is helpful in the radiologic-pathologic correlation, diagnosis, and clinical management of future cases.

Introduction And Importance: Eosinophilic mastitis is a very rare but benign entity of complex pathogenesis. Most cases present similar to breast carcinoma, which makes it a challenging condition to diagnose. We report the sixteenth case of eosinophilic mastitis and the third case without systemic demonstrations.

Article Synopsis
- In spring 2021, 12 first-calving heifers on a Taranaki dairy farm developed severe skin lesions on their teats, leading to varied outcomes: 8 cows recovered while 4 were culled, with two requiring surgical intervention.
- The lesions started as crusty scabs and progressed to thick, dead tissue, causing inflammation without milk leakage or odor; diagnostic tests excluded several viral causes.
- The condition was diagnosed as ischaemic teat necrosis (ITN), resembling a novel disease previously reported in the UK, with additional cases appearing on the same farm in the following years.
Expression of the receptor for IgM (FcμR) by bovine neutrophils.
Dev Comp Immunol

ISP, INRAE, Université de Tours, Nouzilly, France. Electronic address:
Bovine neutrophils possess a particular set of receptors for immunoglobulins. They have been shown to express a distinctive receptor for IgG, and it has long been known that they interact poorly with IgG but that they can use IgM antibodies as opsonins. We show that the binding of labeled IgM was inhibited by unlabeled IgM but not by IgA, suggesting that bovine neutrophils express a specific IgM receptor.

Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) is a rare inflammatory breast disease with unknown etiology, characterized by non-caseous granulomatous inflammation of the lobules, which infiltrate lymphocytes, neutrophils, plasma cells, monocytes, and eosinophils may accompany. GLM is often misdiagnosed as breast cancer due to the lack of specificity in clinical and imaging examinations, and therefore histopathology is the main basis for confirming the diagnosis. This review provides an overview of the pathological features of granulomatous lobular mastitis and cystic neutrophil granulomatous mastitis (CNGM, a pathologic subtype of GLM).
