Ultrasonographic evaluation of women with pathologic nipple discharge
Nipple discharge is a common symptom that is alarming for the patient since it can be a presenting symptom of breast cancer. Breast imaging is used to examine women with pathologic nipple discharge in order to detect any lesions that may be present and to assist in the differential diagnosis. The modalities of breast imaging include mammography, breast ultrasonography (US), and magnetic resonan...
متن کاملImaging, Diagnosis, Prognosis Hypermethylated Genes as Biomarkers of Cancer in Women with Pathologic Nipple Discharge
Purpose: In a pilot study of women with pathologic nipple discharge (PND) undergoing ductoscopy, we tested quantitative assessment of gene promoter hypermethylation using quantitative multiplex methylation–specific PCR (QM-MSP) to enhance detection of duct carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Experimental Design: Women with PND underwent ductoscopy; ducts with significant lesions were surgically resected ...

متن کاملSuspicious Nipple Discharge Diagnostic Evaluation
The diagnosis of ND begins with its characterization as either a physiological or pathological condition (Simmons et al., 2003). Physiological discharge, often a manifestation of breast manipulation, is usually bilateral, is white or green, and emanates from many ducts (Simmons et al., 2003). Possible causes of persistent physiological discharge include oral contraceptives, antihypertensives, t...
متن کاملNipple Discharge: Evaluation and Management
Nipple discharge is a common symptom women complain of. It is classified as normal or abnormal depending on features such as laterality, cycle variation, quantity, color or presentation (induced vs spontaneous). It can be related to benign conditions such as intraductal papilloma, duct ectasia, plasma cell mastitis, galactorrhea or malignant such as ductal or papillary carcinoma. Techniques use...
