Abstrakt     Background. The differential diagnosis of primary breast tuberculosis with other benign or malignant conditions can be difficult with the current imaging techniques that used to recognize breast pathologies. In many cases mammographic and ulfrasound characteristics of breast tuberculosis are similar to those of breast cancer, Case report. We present a case o f primary breast tuberculosis, with no previous history of the disease, which was diagnosed during the operation. Conclusions. Primary breast tuberculosis can be misdiagnosed. In these cases a tuberculosis infection history is negative, the mammographic and radiological findings obscure and the mass can be misdiagnosed as carcinoma. The diagnosis is achieved after the surgical removal of the mass and histological examination of the specimen,
Izvleček     Izhodišča. Diagnostično razlikovanje primarne tuberkuloze dojke od ostalih benignih in malignih obolenj je s sodobnimi slikovnimi metodami težavno. V mnogih primerih so mamografske in ultrazvočne značilnosti tuberkuloznih sprememb v dojki podobne spremembam pri raku dojke. Prikaz primera. Prikazujemo primer bolnice, ki ni imela anamnestičnih podatkov o tuberkulozi in smo ji tuberkulozo dojke diagnosticirali med operacijo. Zaključki. Pri bolnicah s primarno tuberkulozo dojke lahko postavimo napačno diagnozo. To je pogosteje pri bolnicah, ki anamnestično nimajo podatkov o tuberkulozi, ko so slikovno diagnostični izvidi zavajujoči in ko sumimo na rak dojke. V takih primerih diagnosticiramo bolezen po kirurški odstranitvi bolezenskih sprememb v dojki in s histološkim pregledom.
