[Diagnosis and quick diagnosis of breast neoplasms by means of fine needle puncture biopsy].
The technic, advantages and limitations of the fine needle method for diagnostic purposes in pathologic alterations of the breast are discussed. Our own results bear out the value of the method for rapid diagnosis: puncture of 252 breast tumors and 78 mastectomy scars revealed 37 and 41 suspect or malignant alterations respectively. No false positive diagnoses were recorded. The rate of false negative results was 7.3% in breast tumors and 9.9% in mastectomy scars.
