Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of fiberoptic ductoseopy in diagnosis and treatment of nipple discharge diseases.Methods From March 2007 to March 2008,91 patients with nipple discharge were admitted in our hospital.These patients were diagnosed and treated using flberoptic ductoscope FVY-780,and their documents were retrospectively analyzed.Results All the 91 cases were successfully diagnosed and treated with fiberoptic ductoscopy.54 cases(59.3%) were diagnosed as protrusion lesions,19 of whom experinced multiple protrusion,and 5 cases(5.5%) of early breast carcinoma were confirmed by postoperative pathology.37 patients(40.7%) diagnosed as non-protrusion lesions were treated by irrigation therapy,some of whom improved or cured.Conclusions Fiberoptic ductoseopy is the first choice of examination for nipple discharge,and it has important clinical values in choosing procedures for it can show precisely the cause and lesion site.Surgery can thereby be avoided for non-protrusion lesions.Locating the site of lesions in mammary ducts guided by fiberoptic duetoscopy may make operations more accurate and minimally invasive.
