title: [The place of galactography in the diagnosis of secreting mamma].
abstract: Examinations were carried out in 3,300 women, finding in 210 cases a spontaneous or provoked discharge from one or two breasts. Out of these women 115 patients came for galactographic examination. After the radiological examinations 37 patients were treated surgically including 28 cases with the diagnosis of intraductal hyperplasia, and in this group of patients histopathological examination demonstrated: nine cases of cancer, seven cases of papilloma, seven cases of fibroadenoma, seven cases of benign dysplasia with ductal epithelial hyperplasia, three cases of inflammatory lesions, and one case without pathological changes. The analysis carried out demonstrated that galactographic picture of secreting ducts may suggest a hyperplastic process but determination of its character is possible only in histopathological examination.
