Özet
Sir,
Granulomatous mastitis is a rare benign breast disease that has clinical and radiological findings similar to those of breast cancer. Although its etiology is unclear, it commonly coexists with Wegener’s granulomatosis, sarcoidosis, diabetes mellitus, leprosy, and connective tissue disorders. It is rarely reported in association with erythema nodosum.[1-3]
Erythema nodosum is a reactive dermatosis with
inflammation of the subcutaneous fat. It typically
presents as an acute eruption of erythematous, tender subcutaneous nodules over the pretibial areas. Plantar erythema nodosum is rare and is usually
seen in children or people with systemic diseases
such as Crohn’s disease, Takayasu’s arteritis and after treatment with infliximab.[4,5] We were unable to find any previous reports of plantar erythema nodosum associated with granulomatous mastitis.
