Mammary tuberculosis is a rare form of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis, even in endemic regions, representing only 0.06% to 0.1% of all tuberculosis cases. It is often confused with a malignant tumour because of its clinical and radiological similarities, and mainly affects women of childbearing age. Diagnosis is based on bacteriological and histopathological evidence, and treatment is mainly based on anti-tuberculosis drugs. Sometimes surgery is required.A literature review was carried out using the PubMed, Google Scholar and Web of Science databases. The search terms used were 'tuberculosis' and 'breast', and studies published up to 2023 in English and French were included.
