Several breast diseases can complicate breastfeeding : 4% of women develop a mastitis and 1% develop an abscess. The study deals with cases of breast abscess that have been treated according to a defined protocol (Parisian Perinatal Health Network), by a multidisciplinary team (center of Medical Imaging Duroc) trained in breastfeeding and ultrasound-guided punctures. The aim of the study is to define the risk factors for the onset of a breast abscess, to evaluate the indications and methods of management of abscess by ultrasound puncture, and to provide arguments motivating the continuation of breastfeeding.
