title: [Breast secretions].
abstract: Nipple discharge, a rare clinical sign, is more frequently determined by benign breast diseases, but it can be associated to breast cancer; for this reason such clinical sign shouldn't be ignored. Cytologic examination together with breast examination and thermography are the correct oncologic approach for nipple discharge, because such way it is possible to select the patients for whom mammography or galactography are recommended as well as and breast biopsy depending on the galactographic data.
