“…Radical mastectomy is performed if there is extensive involvement of the chest wall and Rotter ganglions (78). Breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy) may be performed in elderly patients, with a serious concomitant disease, who has gynecomasty along with a small tumor since the male breast is small and most tumors have a subareolar location, but this procedure is rarely preferred (81). Adjuvant RT is also added to the treatment of such patients.…”

“…At 8 years of follow-up in women, the frequency of ipsilateral tumours is 13% with lumpectomy and breast irradiation; morality is 1.6% 21 . Cutuli et al observed 4 recurrences in follow-up of 27 male dcis patients: 3 after lumpectomy, and 1 after modified radical mastectomy 22 . Among all cases of male breast cancer, 0.7% will suffer contralateral disease with a standardized incidence ratio of 30 overall and 110 for patients younger than 50 years of age at onset 23 .…”

“…Research pertaining to lumpectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy for men is sparse. Simple excision alone is often endorsed 19,22 , although some authorities maintain that total mastectomy be performed because nipple excision is usually necessary 4 . Excision of the nipple is done because the small size of the male breast typically leads to subareolar involvement 4 .…”

“…The tumorectomy seems to give less local control of the disease. In a study of 31 invasive ductal carcinomas, Cutuli found three relapses after tumorectomy (50%) whereas only one relapse occured for 25 mastectomies (4%) [51]. The small size of the male breast makes it difficult to pass into healthy margins, so tumorectomy is not…”
