Popis: Actinomycosis of the breast is extremely unusual. Primary actinomycosis of the breast has been reported in patients who presented with a lump, clinically simulating malignancy. Literature search reveals very few cases of actinomycosis of breast. However, actinomycosis of breast associated with breast carcinoma is even more rare. We report a rare occurrence of actinomycosis of breast in a case of invasive duct carcinoma of the breast.
