BACKGROUND: Idiopathic @entity10516 (IGM) is a @entity1558 that has been described as a rare @entity32 ( @entity32 ). It can mimic @entity0 . MASTERIAL AND METHODS: We included @entity1 with a diagnosis of IGM referred to an oncologic hospital between January 01, 2007 and to March 31, 2011, with diagnosis of @entity0 , in whom biopsy reported @entity32 , without other cause related. The aim of this study was to review the clinical, radiologic and pathologic characteristics of a cohort of @entity1 with IGM. RESULTS: We analyzed 58 @entity1 ; mean age was 38    12 years. Mammography showed diffuse asymmetry (n = 19) and focal asymmetry (n = 13); breast ultrasound showed heterogeneous and hypoechoic areas (n = 28) and lumps (n = 21) as the most frequent lesions. All biopsies showed lobulocentric @entity32 . Treatment included antibiotics (n = 20), @entity230 (n = 8), both treatments (n = 20), surgical excision (n = 3) and observation (n = 7). Forty-three @entity1 (74%) had complete remission; mean time to remission was 9.5    5.8 months. Fifteen (26%) had partial remission. Any @entity1 had progression or relapse. CONCLUSIONS: IGM is a benign breast condition that may mimic @entity0 . Ultrasonography and mammography findings reveal characteristic data that can be useful for establishing the diagnosis; however, biopsy is the gold standard for its diagnosis and should be taken in any @entity1 even with a mild suspicion of @entity5 .
