Breast suffering from tuberculosis, there are two cases, a patient is suffering from tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis through the blood circulation into the breast, breast growth, reproduction and breast tissue damage caused by disease. But the primary change of TB may be cured, or very small lesions, check out. Another is a situation in tuberculosis patients had chest wall, and then direct the spread of tuberculosis change to the breast, which is called secondary breast nodules.
Suffering from tuberculosis patients in the breast almost all young people, the incidence of breast cancer than earlier age 10 to 20 years. The disease is slowly develop. There is the beginning of breast lumps, with some pain, touch up slightly feel pain, redness is not. After the batter central necrosis liquefaction (Lean into the rubbish kind), then this skin lumps and adhesion together and become purple and finally discharging lesions. Rupture after enduring heal, forming a chronic sinus. A sinus in the skin, breast in a deep, often some Nongshui outflow. Lesions near the nipple and areola area, the nipple to Lane Depression, nipple fluid flow, liquid often swollen lymph node under. As lymph node TB change occurred liquefaction, and axillary emplacement within the organization, caused inflammation around the axillary lymph nodes, lymph node can adhesion into pieces. These phenomena and similar breast cancer, may sometimes misdiagnosed as breast cancer.
TB change the scope of the PC, only a small part of the violations of the breast, breast shape is not much change. Big may destabilize the entire breast, the breast lesions formed after long years of bad ulcer.
Breast tuberculosis drug treatment rarely effective, most need surgical treatment. If the lesion confined to the part of the breast, the patient is very young, especially unmarried youth, under the removal of a diseased tissue or part of the breast. If the lesion is very wide, and only pure entire breast removed. Axillary lymph node adhesion into pieces or break the festering ulcer formation, it can also be removed at the same time. Both before and after surgery, should use the drug for the treatment of tuberculosis. For tuberculosis of the chest wall from the start in most of rib lesions, pleural outside. The location of the disease if not thorough treatment, and will continue to relapse.
Very few of breast cancer and breast nodules exist, it should not be any that TB is a benign breast disease and do not need surgery. Should lesions after surgery for pathological examination, if it is proved that exist cancer, still needs radical surgery for breast cancer and other treatment methods
