    Summary

    Male breast cancer (carcinoma of the breast) shows similar survival rates to female breast cancer, despite significantly lower incidence. This study analyzed 537 male cases from 1955-1968.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Epidemiology

    Context:

    • Breast cancer mortality rates in men (0.6-0.8/100,000) are substantially lower than in women (22-29/100,000) between 1950-1970.
    • A cohort of 537 male breast cancer cases was recorded by the Enquête Permanente Cancer between 1955 and 1968.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the clinical characteristics and survival outcomes of male breast cancer.
    • To compare the incidence and outcomes of breast cancer in men versus women.

    Summary:

    • The study details 293 male breast cancer cases diagnosed before treatment, examining patient age, tumor topography, histology, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging, and treatment modalities.
    • Reported 5-year survival rates were 39.2%, 10-year rates were 23.7%, and 20-year rates were 16%. Relative survival rates were 49% (5-year), 37.5% (10-year), and 43.8% (20-year).
    • These survival figures are comparable to other similar male breast cancer studies.

    Impact:

    • The findings indicate no significant difference in breast cancer outcomes between men and women.
    • Highlights the importance of continued research into male breast cancer, despite its rarity.
