Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) is an infrequent inflammatory breast disease, which can simulate malignancy on the basis of clinical and imaging features. It is typically found in parous or lactating women. The differential diagnosis of granulomatous mastitis includes infections caused by bacterial, fungal or mycobacterial agents, and autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis, giant cell vasculitis, and granulomatosis with polyangiitis. ⋯ The majority of cases of GLM are still "idiopathic" as this pattern of inflammation still remains a mystery. We herein report three cases of CNGM and review the relevant literature. Key Words: Granulomatous mastitis, Corynebacterium, Gram-positive rods, Inflammatory breast disease, Cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis.
