[Cryptococcal mastitis after corticosteroid therapy].

We described a case of cryptococcal mastitis in a 46 years old female patient receiving corticosteroids for sarcoidosis. There was radiological pulmonary deterioration and a cystic lesion was found in the left breast. The mycosis was diagnosed by histopathology and cryptococcal antigens. We emphasized the sarcoid granuloma diagnostic's dilemma an the rare manifestation of cryptococcal infection as mastitis.
