Importance of ductal washing as an early diagnostic method in patients with risk factors for breast cancer. SOLCA-CUENCA 2005

Breast cancer is one of the most important epidemiological problems in the world, in the region and in our country. The cause is unknown but there are risk factors such as age, personal history, genetic history, etc., that increase the probability of developing this type of cancer. This is the reason that they have tried many forms of early diagnostic exams such as mammography, digital mastography, cytological ductal discharge exam, etc., in search of detecting preinvasive or minimally invasive cancers. At present, the ductal washing technique (extension of the nipple aspiration technique) has been developed in order to improve the cell production field and detect cancer early. The present is a descriptive study that aims to determine the importance of ductal washing as an early diagnostic method of breast cancer in patients with risk factors, for this the observational method will be used, the data will be collected and analyzed by the Excel and SPSS program using descriptive statistical statistics and association. The results will be presented in a final report document and will be disseminated through its presentation in different national and international scientific events.
