A 34year-old woman has been having bloody nipple discharge from the right nipple, on and off for several months. There are no palpable masses. What is the diagnosis? Intraductal papllioma
3
INTRADUCTAL PAPILLOMA
It is a benign, solitary polypoid lesion involving epithelium-lined major subareolar ducts. Presents as bloody nipple discharge in premenopausal women.. Major differential diagnosis is between intraductal papilloma and invasive papillary carcinoma Management: Cancer should be ruled out , Ductogram can help Excision of involved duct (microdochectomy) after localization by physical examination
4
A 43 -year- old women presents with blood tinged discharge from her right nipples. She indicates that this problem has been occurring intermittently over the past several weeks. Her past medical history is significant for hypothyroidism . Her medication consist of OCP and levothyroxine. On examination , she is found to have fibrocystic changes in both breast . there is evidence of thickening in the right retroareolar region . there is no evidence of nipple discharge or adominant mass in the left breast .

What should be your next step ?
Cytology Mammograghy Us Ductogram Biopsy
9
History: spontaneous characteristic (bloody, milky , purulent , green to yellow ) uni or bilateral lactation ( duration and time of weaning) pain
10
Types of Discharge Milky white discharge galactorrhe (bilateral)
Pregnancy common after Lactation (as long as two years) Straw-colored, transparent discharge due to a papilloma. The resulting increase in vascular pressure causes a transudate to form in the duct.
11
Types of Discharge Grossly bloody discharge
1/3 due to an intraductal carcinoma, 1/3 due to bleeding papillomata, and 1/3 from fibrocystic changes with an active intraductal component. Guaiac positive discharge Nipple secretion that is not grossly bloody, but is guaiac positive. causes: intraductal pathologies or plasma cell mastitis with duct ectasia.
12
Positive guaiac test shown on right
Negative on left
13
Nipple Discharge Causes (in order of frequency) Physiological
Duct papilloma Duct ectasia Periductal mastitis Cancer Galactorrhoea
15
Expressing of discharge
16
Bilateral multiductal secretion
is usually normal and tests negative on the guaiac card (i.e. Not bloody) regardless of color treatment is reassurance and endocrinological follow-up if abnormal However, prolactin and TSH concentration should be measured.
17
UNILATERAL DISCHARGE -multiductal unilateral discharge is unlikely to represint significant disease and should be investigated similarly to bilateral discharge . Uniductal discharge is more likely to represent underlying pathology .
18
Investigation Cytologic examination
recommended for guaiac positive or bloody discharge. useful for differentiating between proliferative lesions and inflammatory lesions . Mammography and ultrasound
19
Ductography It can often identify intraluminal lesions, Cytology can also be obtained at the time of the ductogram.
20
Ductoscopy Ductoscopy is increasingly employed as a minimally invasive method for evaluation and treatment of nipple discharge. (It involves placing a small (outer diameter cm) fiberoptic cannula in the offending duct; the procedure can be done in the office or in the operating room. Ductoscopic biopsy is also possible in some cases and obviates the need to excise the surgical duct.)
22
TREATMENT An isolated papilloma is benign, but diffuse papillomatosis is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. In both cases, surgery is necessary to treat the nipple discharge and confirm the diagnosis. All guaiac positive and/or bloody nipple discharge without imaging correlate should be resected by a terminal duct excision.
23
Nipple discharge
24
KEY POINTS - Nipple discharge is common and usually of benign origin.
- Bilateral and multiductal nipple discharge are almost always due to benign processes. - Discharge characteristics associated with a higher risk of underlying malignancy are spontaneous, persistent, unilateral discharge; discharge limited to one duct; presence of a breast mass; and bloody fluid.
25
- A straw-colored, transparent, sticky discharge is characteristic of an intraductal papilloma.
- Cytology should be performed only when nipple discharge is grossly bloody or guaiac positive. Surgical excision is warranted after imaging for grossly bloody or guaiac positive discharge. - Cytology may be useful for differentiating between proliferative lesions and inflammatory lesions in women with guaiac positive discharge. Both processes require excision.
27
Breast Screening Aim Of Screening: -The early detection of cancer
-Any mass < 2 cm is not palpable
28
Clinical presentation of breast lesion
29
When should Done ?
30
When should Done ? No controversy: all women aged 50 and older should have a mammogram (CDC recommendation) , (Grade 1A), every 1-2 year (Grade 2A) Also clinical breast examination (Grade 1B) Women aged 40 to 49 (Grade 2B) In high risk group The decision depends on individual risk .
32

Well Circumscribed Mass D.D
( Fibroadenoma Fibrocystic Changes )
37
Multiple Clusters Of Small , Irregular Calcifications In A Segmental Distribution
The suspicious Calcification Should Be Biopsied 20% to 30% is DCIS
38
Reading the Mammogram Where is the suspecious lesion???
39
Medically proven malignancy.
40
A benign microcacification
41
Reading the Mammogram Best if read by radiologist
specializing in mammography. Using Category of American College Of Radiology.

Category of American College Of Radiology
BioRads Assessment Category 0 Needs Additional Imaging Evaluation Category 1 Negative (5/10,000 risk of breast cancer) Category 2 Benign Finding (5/10,000 risk of breast cancer) Category 3 Probably Benign Finding: Short Interval Follow up Suggested (generally 6 months) Category 4 Suspicious Abnormality-Biopsy Should be considered (risk cancer 25-50%) Category 5 Highly suggestive of malignancy- Appropriate Action should be taken (obvious cancer: %risk)
43
Limitation of Mammogram
Mammogram is best method of detecting breast cancer at an early stage, but is it perfect ?? There is No perfect test , screening mammogram lead to over-diagnosis and subsequent problem of false positive

What Is Your Next Step? U.S guided FNAC vs. U.S guided core biopsy , Unfortunately the lesion not seen by ultra sound Then what is your next step?
49
needle-localization excisional biopsy
Stereotactic Biopsy or needle-localization excisional biopsy Depends on the site of the lesion and/or patient preference
50
Case Discussion What are stereotactic core biopsy and needle localization core biopsy?
51
Stereotactic core biopsy: biopsies are taken as directed with computer-assisted techniques. (For non palpable mass) and has 2% to 4% “miss rates”
52
Case Discussion If FNA cytology detecting benign cells, so either continue routine screening, (or close follow-up in non-certain cytological analysis) .
53
Case Discussion If FNA cytology detecting malignant cells, so Needle localization core-biopsy should be obtained as many as 50% of such a case will reveal a (DCIS). ACS surgery principle and practice 2006 (Nowadays they use iodine-125 seed localizing biopsy in some center to avoid needle placement) a called emerging technique
55
The tissue biopsy come back and diagnosed as
Case Discussion The tissue biopsy come back and diagnosed as DCIS.
56
Case Discussion What is the management ?
1- wide excision →→ assess the margins once negative →→ +/- irradiate breast and follow up. 2 – If margins are positive, patient worried of recurrence and/or lesion > 5 cm →→ simple mastectomy +/- reconstruction
57
Lobular Carcinoma in Situ LCIS
Rare , occurs in young women Always almost incidental finding in biopsy for other reason. found bilaterally in 25% of cases Marker of increased risk for invasive carcinoma Treatment either close follow up or prophylactic simple mastectomy.

Studies evaluating Breast Self Examination
No difference in breast cancer mortality No difference in stage of cancer at diagnosis More provider visits: 8% vs. 4% More benign biopsies Chinese 266,000 women age in monthly BSE with extensive training, 2 reinforcement sessions, multiple reminders: Planned for 10 year F/U – powered to find 30% difference in mortality. At 10 years, no difference in mortality (135 vs. 131) Russia: 122,000 women aged with similar BSE teaching. No difference in mortality at 9 years. Neither has reached maturity but a large benefit would be unlikely and the continuation of both studies is threatened from a political perspective. Chinese and Russian study: no benefit Non-randomized trial of BSE in UK Nested case control in a Canadian screening study NO REDUCTION IN MORTALITY
61
Nipple Laceration Keep clean and dry.
Stop breastfeeding that side and allow to heal Antibiotics usually not necessary
62
Supernumerary Breasts
Relatively common Found along “milk line” Most identified during pregnancy/lactation Most common in axilla Not dangerous
63
Supernumerary Nipples
More common than supernumerary breasts Found along milk line May darken during pregnancy Not dangerous
64
Mondor’s disease thrombophlebitis of lateral thoracic vein.
65
Male breast Carcinoma Risk factor are: 1- gynecomastia 2- BRCA 2
