Research Article: Construction of a Multi-Indicator Model for Abscess Prediction in Granulomatous Lobular Mastitis Using Inflammatory Indicators
Abstract:
Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) is a general term for a group of purulent inflammatory conditions that occur in the breasts of women who are not breastfeeding or pregnant. Clinical manifestations of GLM include sudden onset of breast lumps, redness and pain, abscesses, and fistula formation. In severe cases, it may be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever and erythema of the lower limbs.– The clinical stages of GLM include the self-limited stage, the congestive swelling stage, the abscess formation stage and the complex refractory stage. Almost all patients will progress to the abscess formation stage if left untreated. Although the abscess formation stage can be treated surgically, this operation often causes distortion of the breast appearance, affecting the attractiveness of the breasts., Through long-term clinical observation, we have found that Chinese herbs are more effective at the early stage of abscess formation and can maintain the appearance of the breast well while reducing the size of the breast lump. It is clear that early detection and treatment of the abscess formation stage of GLM is an important measure to stop the progression of GLM.
