Title: [Demonstration of Wegener's granulomatosis in the mammogram]. Author: Deininger HK. Journal: Rofo; 1984 Aug; 141(2):198-203. PubMed ID: 6431545.

Up to now, the manifestation of a Wegener's disease of the female breast was neither mentioned in collective statistics of more than 324 cases nor it could be found in examining the publications of additional 231 cases.

The regression of the tumor like lesions in the breast was remarkable.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
