Brief Summary

Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) is a relatively rare chronic inflammatory disease of the breast in clinical practice. A small number of patients develop hyperprolactinemia during psychiatric drug treatment, and most of these patients are nulliparous. At present, there is no unified treatment mode at home and abroad, and surgery is generally the main treatment. GLM is a sterile inflammation, and glucocorticoids and methotrexate can effectively relieve clinical symptoms and even reach the standard of cure. In order to reduce the recurrence rate and protect the breast appearance as much as possible, we propose a conservative therapy. The purpose of this study was to compare this conservative therapy of granulomatous lobular mastitis with existing surgical treatment, and to compare the overall benefits of the two for patients with GLM. We aim to protect the breast appearance on the premise of low recurrence, improve the quality of life of GLM patients with psychiatric disorders .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Recurrence rate

    Inflammatory changes, mass, abscess or fistula formation, nodular erythema of the upper and lower extremities and joint pain occurred in the ipilateral breast within one year after surgery was defined as recurrence.

    Up to 1 years

  • Breast appearance and cosmetic effect score

    Refer to Harris standard to evaluate postoperative cosmetic effect. Specify the breast appearance and cosmetic effect rating table.

    Up to 1 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • recovery time

    Up to 2 years

Study Arms (2)

Steroid combined with methotrexate

EXPERIMENTAL

Prednisone 30 mg/day, supplemented with calcium and omeprazole, and Prednisone were slowly reduced to 10 mg/day after symptoms were relieved, and combined with 7.5 mg/week MTX therapy.

Drug: conservative treatment

Extensive lesion excision

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in the control group underwent wide local excision, make sure the margin is negative. Irrigation and mammoplasty were performed in the same way as in the observation group.

Interventions

Prednisone 30 mg/day, supplemented with calcium and omeprazole, and Prednisone were slowly reduced to 10 mg/day after symptoms were relieved, and combined with 7.5 mg/week MTX therapy.

Steroid combined with methotrexate
