Drug‐Induced Hyperprolactinemia and Granulomatous Mastitis: A Case Report and Literature Review

Granulomatous mastitis (GM) is a rare inflammatory condition of the breast that can mimic inflammatory breast cancer. We report a case of a 54-year-old female who developed recurrent GM symptoms in the context of drug-induced hyperprolactinemia, which resolved with dopamine agonist therapy. Our report suggests that serum prolactin should be tested in patients with GM and appropriately managed if elevated.

Abstract

Granulomatous mastitis (GM) is a rare inflammatory condition of the breast that can mimic inflammatory breast cancer. We report a case of a 54-year-old female who developed recurrent GM symptoms in the context of drug-induced hyperprolactinemia, which resolved with dopamine agonist therapy. Our report suggests that serum prolactin should be tested in patients with GM and appropriately managed if elevated.
