[The diagnostic and therapeutic validity of pneumoradiography of breast cysts in the light of personal experience with 236 cases].

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.

[Breast needle-biopsy. Personal experience].

A personal series of 133 mammary needle biopsies is presented. Cytological specimens were obtained by aspiration via a thin needle from solid neoformations. The causes in which this form of examination was used are described and the extent to which the findings influenced surgery is explained. The method was found to be diagnostically sound and easy to perform. It may be regarded as a useful addition to other instrumental techniques in the diagnosis of breast swellings and in reducing the percentage of error.
