| Summary: | Idiopathic granulomatous lesion is a rare entity of the breast seen in young-middle aged women. Diagnosis and management of granulomatous
lesions with known aetiology does not impose major clinical problems. However, most often these lesions are undetected or unnoticed
due to lack of timely diagnosis and inappropriate management, as primarily it is idiopathic. Hyperprolactinemia have been proposed as
one of the mechanisms underlying the development of granulomatous lesions of the breast. We report a case of hyperprolactinemia due to
risperidone therapy for bipolar mood disorder in a woman who eventually developed granulomatous mastitis. Histologically, the diagnosis
was confirmed by the presence of granulomatous lesion and by ruling out other potential causes. In this case, raised prolactin was possibly
an important factor which was secondary to risperidone therapy. However, idiopathic granulomatous mastitis could not be completely ruled
out. |
