The study included 336 women aged 18-72 years with non-lactating mastitis who were hospitalized into the clinic for the period 1999-2016. Main clinical variants of the disease, spectrum of pathogens and its relationship with clinical forms of mastitis were determined. Also early and long-term outcomes were evaluated followed by formulation of therapeutic and diagnostic concept of surgical care for non-lactating mastitis.
