Abstract

Introduction: Palpable masses after mastectomy are commonly detected by patients or their physicians. Imaging of palpable masses is advised following a complete history and physical examination. This is a case of breast nodules occurring after the removal of cancerous tissue in the breast. Homoeopathy, with its holistic approach, can treat the disease by addressing its multifactorial origin.

Case summary: A 71-year-old female, diagnosed with post-operative breast nodules after surgical excision of mucinous carcinoma portion of the left breast, was treated with individualised homoeopathic treatment for six months with subsequent improvement. This case provides preliminary evidence for the potential usefulness of homoeopathy as an alternative therapy for the treatment of breast nodules.
