Histology, however, showed numerous granulomas with central caseous necrosis surrounded by typical epithelioid macrophages and a thin rim of lymphocytes (Figure 1).
Higher power view shows one of the granulomas with an obvious central area of caseous necrosis surrounded by epithelioid cells among which are seen a few multinucleated giant cells. Normal breast glands with pregnancy-like changes are seen at the upper end of the micrograph (H&E, X200)
