Abstract
Introduction :Breast diseases are at a rising trend in recent years among young women. Many cancers are diagnosed at advanced stages. Carcinoma breast that too invasive ductal variety is the most commonest of all. Aims and objectives: Earlier detection of malignancy in breasts with the aid of modified triple test which includes clinical examination,USG breast,FNAC of breast lump. Materials and methods: A prospective study done at Goovernment Mohan Kumaramangalm Medical College Hospital for a time period of 1 year from November 2016 to november 2017. A total of 103 patients were included in the study. Inclusion criteria- Female > 20yrs and willing for lump excision. Exclusion criteria- females <20 yrs,males,Advanced diseases of breast,patients not willing for lump excision. Results Based on the studies 17 /20 of nipple discharge cases ,30/50 painless lumps,19/21 axillary lymphnode cases,33/39 hard lumps were malignant.sensitivity of USG ,clinical examination, FNAC,MTT 86.8% ,86.34% 92% ,97.36% respectively. Conclusion Modified triple test is far better in early detection of breast malignancies than individual tests
