title: [Complex diagnosis of breast diseases in a polyclinic].
abstract: In 159 patients with malignant and in 170 patients with benign tumors the diagnosis was established on the basis of clinical data, cytographic findings, obtained in puncturing the node and the results of roentgenological studies of mammary glands. In patients with malignant tumors all these methods yielded the similar results in 71.7% of cases, none of the methods concerned helped to diagnose the lesion in 2.5% of cases. The ultimate diagnosis in patients to be directed to the clinic coincided with histological findings in 97.5%. The coincidence of diagnoses, while using the mentioned three methods in patients with benign breast tumors was noted in 72.9% of cases. The methods under consideration failed to establish the diagnosis in 3% of cases. The ultimate diagnosis coincided with histological findings in 97.0%. The presence of negative results while using each of these methods is shown to be the characteristic of their resolving power.
