| description | Breast cancer is rare in males. It accounts for 1 percent of all breast cancers and less than 0.1 percent of male cancer deaths. The prognosis of breast cancer in men and women is similar in the same stages. The rarity of breast carcinoma in men and its location in the sub-areolar region may lead to delay of diagnosis and treatment. We present an 82 year-old male patient who had pain and swelling in his left breast for about 3 years. He also had lung and liver metastasis. By presenting such a case and also reviewing the literature data, we hoped that we would emphasize the importance of early diagnosis of male breast cancer. |
