Overview
A breast abscess is a rare disease with an incidence of 3,000-11,000 cases only per 100,000 mastitis patients. There is no significant prevalence concerning the abscess.
Epidemiology and demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of breast abscess is 3,000-11,000 per 100,000 of patients with mastitis.
- The incidence of breast abscess is only 100-3,000 per 100,000 of the puerperal patients. [1][2]
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop breast abscess.
- Breast abscess is more common observed in the infants and the young more than the elder.
- It is common in neonates with mastitis as approximately 50 percent of the neonatal patients with mastitis can develop breast abscess.[3]
Gender
Breast abscess occurs commonly in women. It is very rare in men.
Race
Breast abscess is more prevalent in the african american race.[4]
