Summary
Male breast carcinoma is a rare but increasing cancer. Early detection is crucial as diagnosis is often delayed in males, impacting prognosis.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Pathology
Background:
- Male breast carcinoma is uncommon, often diagnosed late.
- Increasing incidence noted in recent years.
Purpose of the Study:
- Evaluate pathological and radiological features.
- Analyze immunohistochemical profiles.
- Review treatment methods for male breast cancer.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective review of 27 male breast cancer cases (2006-2019).
- Analysis of pathological, radiological, and immunohistochemical data.
Main Results:
- Common diagnosis: invasive carcinoma - no special type.
- Most common surgery: mastectomy with lymph node dissection.
- High rates of Estrogen receptor (24/27) and Progesterone receptor (21/27) positivity.
Conclusions:
- Male breast cancer diagnosis is often delayed.
- Increased public awareness and consideration in differential diagnosis are vital.
- Prompt biopsy is essential for early detection and improved outcomes.
