Galactocele: three distinctive radiographic appearances.

Three radiographic appearances of galactocele of the breast not, to our knowledge, described previously in the literature were studied in 11 patients. Mammary nodules with distinct and separate hydro-fat levels were observed in five cases. A nodule containing mixed water and fat densities was seen in one patient, while in the five remaining patients, pneumocystograms revealed masses of a water density mixed with the injected air.
