ABSTRACT
A study was conducted to find out the frequency of breast tuberculosis and its treatment outcome, at the breast clinic of surgical unit 1 ward 3 JPMC Karachi. The study comprised of 152 patients of breast lumps between March 2000 and September 2001, out of which 35 showed positive FNAC for tuberculosis [23%]. They responded very well to antituberculosis chemotherapy and the lump totally disappeared within 12 months of therapy.
