Abstract

RÉSUMÉ
La coexistence d’une lymphadénite tuberculeuse axillaire avec métastases ganglionnaires d’un carcinome mammaire est rare mais aussi un facteur important dans la stadification de la maladie. Cette association peut entraîner des difficultés d'interprétation et une prise en charge inappropriée de la tuberculose ainsi que de la tumeur mammaire. Nous rapportons un cas de carcinome infiltrant du sein chez une femme âgée de 39 ans, où s’est associée une lymphadénite tuberculeuse axillaire aux métastases ganglionnaires du carcinome. La survenue possible et simultanée d’un carcinome mammaire et d’une tuberculose est à évoquer afin d’éviter les difficultés d’interprétation lors d’une prise en charge des formes associant une lymphadénite tuberculeuse axillaire à un carcinome mammaire.

Abstract
The coexistence of tuberculosis with axillary lymph node metastases in breast carcinoma is rare. Axillary lymph node metastasis is the most important factor in the staging of breast carcinoma, this can mimic or complicate the staging of a malignant disease. Dual organ pathology can lead to interpretation difficulties and inappropriate treatment of tuberculosis as well as breast carcinoma. We report an observation of infiltrating carcinoma of the non specific type of the breast in woman aged 39 where tuberculosis was found in the axillary lymph nodes in addition to metastases. Conclusion. The possible and simultaneous occurrence of breast carcinoma and tuberculosis should be mentioned in order to avoid difficulties of interpretation and allow adequate management of axillary tuberculous lymphadenitis and breast carcinoma.
