ABSTRACT
In the presence of unilateral axillary lymphadenopathy associated with a breast radiological finding, breast cancer should constitute the main differential diagnosis. This fact is intensified when there is associated lymphedema. We present a case of a patient in these conditions, for whom breast cancer was not confirmed, and a subsequent evaluation showed that it was cat-scratch disease. This report constitutes the second case of association between lymphedema and bartollenosis.
