RESULTS Among 29 cases,and with 79 galactophores examined,IDP was found in 11 cases (37.9% of the total cases),or 13.9% of the galactopores examined.IDP was found in 9 of 11 cases with a bloody nipple discharge,while IDP was seen in 2 of the 18 cases with a non-bloody nipple discharge.The excision accuracy achieved 100% in the cases,and postoperative pathological diagnosis accordance rate reached 88.9%. CONCLUSION Fiberoptic ductoscopy has many features such as ability to see the lesion,and accurate preoperative localization,thus eliminating excessive excision of tissue during surgery.For most patients with ND,especially those suffering galactostasis,OG or MDE,washout under fiberoptic ductoscopy and interventional therapy may achieve a thorough cure of the disease.展开更多
