Abstract

Any lump in the breast raises suspicion of malignancy. This can be the cause of anxiety for the patients and may lead to unnecessary investigations. Awareness of this completely benign condition can help in early diagnosis of these cases. We report a rare case with isolated infiltration of eosinophils in the mammary gland and overlying skin without other organ involvement.
