Abstract

Objective: To describe the clinical features in breastfeeding women with breast abscess undergoing treatment at Hanoi obstetrics and gynecology Hospital. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 102 breastfeeding patients presenting for examination and treatment of breast abscess at Hanoi obstetrics and gynecology Hospital from April to September 2023. Results: The average age of the study subjects was 27.8 years. The majority were primiparous (63.7%), delivered at full term (94.1%), and experienced symptoms 1-6 months postpartum. The most common clinical signs were fever, pain, and redness at the site of the abscess. Most patients sought medical attention before abscess rupture (96.1%) and had a single abscess (87.3%). The right breast was the most common location (59.8%), with 31.4% at the outer upper quadrant and 27.5% at the inner upper quadrant. Bilateral abscesses were rare (2.9%). The majority of abscesses were smaller than 5cm (76.5%). Conclusion: Breast abscesses commonly occur in primiparous women with typical clinical symptoms of fever, pain, and redness. The right breast, outer upper quadrant, and inner upper quadrant are common locations for breast abscesses.
