RESUMEN
A postmenopausal woman treated with diuretics for hypertension and who underwent surgery for a previous fibroadenoma of the left breast presented, in December 2003, with a sudden bloody discharge of the left nipple with local swelling, redness, and pain. Radiologic investigations revealed a well-delimited tumor under the areola. Needle aspiration disclosed many histiocytes but no bacteria. Despite improvement with antibiotics, the tumor was removed. Pathological examination shows features suggesting the tumor was a gouty tophus. Birefringent crystals were retrospectively found on the smears of the aspirated material. To our knowledge, only 3 similar cases have been reported in the literature.
