Seven hundred and thirty-nine cases (included 15 cases with malignant breast tumors) were offered for the cytologic examination, using materials of nipple discharge, aspiration smears or smears from operated samples.
One group of these cases were 633 cases out of 1351 who presented at the mass survey of the breasts and another one were 103 cases, visited to our hospital with some complaints of the breasts.
The results of aspiration cytology of 13 cases with malignant breast tumors were 9 for positive and 4 for negative. On the other hand, all the cases of non--cancerous patients (724 cases) were cytologically negative and there was no false positive case.
