ABSTRACT
Management of nipple discharge by clinical finding. All of the data on patients referred for nipple discharge in period from 1990-2000 at the Department of Surgery IMAM REZA Hospital were reviewed. The breast nodularity and duct ectasia was seen in 73% of patients. The age of the patient in this group was 30-40 years. Only 10 of 249 patients [5%] who presented with nipple discharge were proved to have carcinoma of the breast. Breast nodularity and duct ectasia is the most cause of nipple discharge [73%]. Nipple discharge was not commonly associated with carcinoma and when it was the carcinoma was almost always palpable
