Normal galactogram of the left breast.

Case Discussion

Galactography seems to be a dying art? In my experience the duse is declining. The identification of a filling defect in the presence of a nipple discharge is described as being a mode of presentation for tumors in the duct. The vast majority of them are papillomas.
