Objective:
To explore the breast fiber endoscopy for the diagnosis of nipple discharge.
Methods:
FV-2000E Japanese ultra-fine fiber-optic duct endoscopy system was employed in 3267 cases of patients with nipple discharge. And the findings were correlated with pathological examinations.
Results:
There were normal lumen (n = 499) (15.27%), duct dilation with chronic inflammation (n = 1750) (53.57%) and intraductal lesions (n = 1018) (31.16%).
Conclusion:
Breast fiber endoscopy is a safe and effective method of examination in patients with nipple discharge. It should be used as the preferred method of etiological diagnosis.
