  • Title: Fasciolosis (liver fluke) of the breast in a male patient: a case report.
    Author: Naresh G, Gomez PA, Salmah B, Suryati MY.
    Journal: Breast; 2006 Feb; 15(1):103-5. PubMed ID: 16024249.
    Abstract:
    Fasciolosis is an uncommon disease in this region, as are parasitic infections of the breast. This report describes a 56-year-old man with a previous history of liver abscess presenting with a painful breast mass. He underwent a mastectomy and is well. The pathological findings revealed chronic granulomatous mastitis with Fasciola spp. ova. The literature on this very rare condition is reviewed.
