ABSTRACT
A milk fistula is a rare condition, and only 27 cases have been reported in the latest systematic review from 2020. A fistula can be iatrogenic or spontaneous. The content of tissue factors in breast milk promotes granulation in wounds, which can lead to hypergranulation and lack of epithelialization. In this case report, a 29-year-old breastfeeding woman developed a milk fistula after surgical removal of a naevus on suspicion of being a melanoma. Hypergranulation of the wound was successfully treated with corticosteroid, which inhibits growth factor in breastmilk, and breastfeeding was continued during treatment.
