A Rare Case of Filariasis in a Male Breast- Case Report

Surjeet Dwivedi*, Surender Kumar

Filariasis of the female breast, although unusual, is a known entity, whereas filariasis in a male breast or case of gynecomastia is extremely rare. We are presenting a case of a 17-year-old boy with painless swelling of a breast. Ultrasonography and FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) were unremarkable and the patient was diagnosed to have filariasis on histopathological examination of the lumpectomy specimen. Filariasis in gynecomastia is extremely rare and a high index of suspicion, especially in endemic areas, is warranted to avoid unnecessary surgery for a medically treatable cause.
