Patent

CA 2327514

Methods, kits, and apparatus for obtaining cellular, chemical, and other materials from breast ducts are described. A single milk duct is accessed and washed with a washing fluid to obtain marker materials from the lining of the duct. The washing fluid is then collected, and the marker materials in the washing fluid identified and analyzed. Usually, the washing fluid is introduced using a syringe through a lumen of a dual-lumen catheter. The ductal volume is filled with the washing fluid and excess fluid flows outwardly through a second lumen of the dual-lumen catheter, from which it is collected. Methods and kits provide for collection of fluid and cells by a lavage procedure that includes applying external pressure to the breast to improve the yield of fluid and cells from the breast duct.

L'invention concerne des procédés, des kits et un appareil permettant d'obtenir des matériaux cellulaires, chimiques et d'autres matériaux à partir des canaux mammaires. Le système selon l'invention accède à un seul canal galactophore qui est lavé à l'aide d'un fluide de lavage pour obtenir des matériaux de marquage à partir de la tunique de ce canal. Le fluide de lavage est ensuite collecté, et les matériaux de marquage dans ce fluide sont identifiés et analysés. Généralement, le fluide de lavage est introduit à l'aide d'une seringue dans une lumière d'un cathéter à doubles lumières. Le volume du canal est rempli du fluide de lavage et l'excès de fluide s'écoule vers l'extérieur par une deuxième lumière du cathéter à doubles lumières à l'aide duquel il est collecté. L'invention concerne des procédés et des kits pour collecter le fluide et les cellules selon une procédure de lavage qui consiste à appliquer une pression externe au sein pour permettre au canal mammaire de fournir davantage de fluide et de cellules.
