Tolerability of breast ductal lavage in women from families at high genetic risk of breast cancer
BACKGROUND: Ductal lavage (DL) has been proposed as a minimally-invasive, well-tolerated tool for obtaining breast epithelial cells for cytological evaluation of breast cancer risk. We report DL tolerability in BRCA1/2 mutation-positive and -negative women from an IRB-approved research study. METHOD...
