LM DDx lymphoma (small cell), diabetic mastopathy (need history)
IHC CD20 > CD3, CD43 -ve

Lymphocytic mastitis is a rare pathology of the breast.

General

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Lymphocytic infiltrates - key feature:
    • Lobules.
    • Perivascular.
  • Enlarged stromal fibroblasts.
  • Stromal collagen with keloid-like changes.

DDx:

  • Diabetic mastopathy - if individual has diabetes.
  • Primary lymphoma of the breast.
