[Therapy of puerperal mastitis].
Mastitis puerperalis is a severe complication of puerperium. Results of treatment of 70 patients with mastitis by low-dose conventional X-ray irradiation and secondary inhibition of lactation by conservative physical measures are reported. Breast abscesses were observed only in 6 of 70 patients. Therefore the antiinflammatory irradiation with low-dose X-rays is a suitable method of treatment.
