Abstract
A forty year old female of weak body built presented with recurring small hard lumps in let posterior
chest wall for 3 years and discharging ulcers for 3 months duration. Clinically, the provisional diagnosis
was malignancy with secondary infection. FNAC showed features suggestive of dysplasia but
histopathology confirmed the diagnosis as actinomycosis. The present case is reported due to rare incidence
of actinomycosis at post chest wall with muscle involvement.
