Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the applicative value of fiberoptic ductoscopy(FDS)in abnormal nipple discharge.Methods A total of 104 patients with nipple discharge were examined by fiberoptic ductoscopy(Germany Scholly Fiberoptic Gmbh 42.0500).The results were compared with postoperative pathological diagnosis.Results All the 104 cases were successfully diagnosed with FDS.The detectable rate for intraductal mass by ductoscopy is 94 %(49/52).The sensitivity and specificity of ductoscopy for mammary duct cancer is 50%(1/2)and 91%(43/47)respectively;the negative predictive value is 98%(43/44),positive predictive value is 20%(1/5),and accuracy is 90%(44/49).Five cases of papillomatosis were diagnosed by ductoscopy,in which 3 cases were consistent with postoperative pathological findings,therefore the diagnose accordance rate is 60%;the other 2 cases were proven to be multiple papilloma.Thirty-eight cases of papilloma were detected by ductoscopy and received lobectomy of bresat;55 cases of inflammatory duct disease did not receive any operation;and 3 cases(3%,3/104)were diagnosed papilloma by re-examination with ductoscopy due to persistent nipple discharge,and were confirmed after operation.Conclusions Fiberoptic ductoscopy is the first choice for examination of nipple discharge for its accuracy in finding pathogenic cause and locating lesion,and surgery can thereby be avoided for galactophoritis and mammarv duct ectasia patients.
