[Adjuvant pharmacologic therapy after fine needle aspiration of breast cysts in women].

OBJECTIVES

The most common and generally accepted methods of breast cysts treatment are fine needle aspiration or surgical excision. None of these methods allow to avoid or decrease number of recurrences. Regarding hormonal disturbances as a main reason for breast cysts also conservative treatment should be given.

DESIGN

To evaluate whether adjuvant pharmacologic therapy is effective in breast cysts recurrence prevention.

MATERIAL AND

METHODS

30 women (35-54 yrs) were treated with fine needle aspiration and afterwards with bromocriptine, estrogen-progestogens and progestogens.

RESULTS

The authors shows that breast cysts recurrence is approximately 10 fold decreased in group with adjuvant therapy with bromocriptine, estrogen-progestogens and progestogens than in group treated with fine needle aspiration only.
