How Ductoscopic Excision of Lesion is performed
Under direct visualization with a ductoscope (small-diameter endoscope), the suspicious duct is entered through the nipple opening, irrigated, and the lesion is located; a common practice is to perform a biopsy, endoscopic resection, or clip/remove the affected duct, supplemented by a small skin incision to remove the specimen if necessary; hemostasis and suturing are completed.
