INVASIVE LOBULAR CARCINOMA OF THE MALE BREAST- A CASE REPORT
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Male breast cancer comprises only 1% of all mammary cancers. Invasive ductal carcinoma is the commonest subtype in both men and women. Though lobular breast cancer is commonly seen in women, but it is extremely uncommon in men. It can be due to lack of lobular development in male breast. We report a case of 70 years old male who presented to OPD with right breast painless growth without any significant medical or family history. Fine needle aspiration revealed findings consistent with invasive carcinoma. The patient underwent modified right radical mastectomy with right axillary sampling. Histological examination showed invasive lobular carcinoma. Lobular breast cancer is difficult to explain and need further research to understand its pathogenesis and molecular profile to provide better vision for improved therapeutic management options.
