[Galactography in the study of the secreting breast].
Sixty cases of mammary secretion were studied using cytological examinations of the mammary secretion, traditional mammography, galactography and histological examination of bioptic samples. Comparison of the results produced by the different techniques highlighted the importance of galactography for the description of the various pictures presented by duct pathologies as well as its outstanding prognostic accuracy. Galactography also offers the major advantage of precisely locating the topographic location of the mammary lesion, thus enabling the surgeon to adopt an appropriate procedure that removes all diseased tissue and structures as is essential for histological success. Quick and easy to perform, practically exempt from complications or side effects, this examination therefore appears to be an irreplaceable addition to the battery of breast cancer diagnosis techniques.
