Abstract

Personal experience of 236 breast cyst aspirations is reported. In 224 cases, insufflation was also successful and pneumocystomammography was carried out, associated always with cytological examination of the aspirated fluid. In 2 cases, the examination made possible a diagnosis of cyst degeneration (0.8%). The number of recurrences was minimal (2.8%). It is concluded that the technique is diagnostically and therapeutically useful.
