Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
Male breast cancer is exceptionally rare and accounts for less than 0.25% of male malignancies and approximately 0.5-1% of all breast cancer (both genders). Our article emphasizes the pathological and radiological differences of male breast cancers from female breast cancers. Mammography of the male breast, constitutes less than 1% of all mammograms performed, commonest lesion imaged being gynecomastia. So, there is less familiarity with the imaging appearances of male breast cancers. We report a case of invasive ductal carcinoma in a 62 years male and provide a comparison with presentations and manifestations in female.
