Filariasis of the breast.

Abstract

Filariasis of the breast is usually seen in endemic areas. Involvement may, however, present years after leaving an endemic area and be associated with circulating microfilariae. We describe the findings in a woman who developed a breast mass three years after a visit to her native India.
