Abstract
Among three cases of a nodular lesion of the breast caused by a filarial worm, one is unique owing to the presence of microfilariae and not the adult worms in the nodule. The lesion in the other two cases was caused by an adult worm and in one of these a carcinosarcoma was also present.Keywords
