Abstract:Background: Ductal lavage (DL) involves cannulating the nipple aspirate fluid (NAF)-producing ducts with a microcatheter and lavaging with saline to retrieve cells for cytological and molecular analysis. This method improves upon NAF and fine-needle aspiration and can provide important data on cellular yield and molecular markers in DL fluid.
Aims and Objectives: This aimed to study the cytology of DL in women at risk of/clinicoradiological possibility of breast carcinoma and to correlate the cytology of DL wi… Show more
