“…There are 2000 new cases of male breast cancer diagnosed each year in the United States in a recent study published in May 2017 [2]. In Africa where it was long ignored, male breast cancer, is characterized by a late diagnosis [3].…”

Studies of male breast cancer are rare in Africa. In Togo in particular, no work has focused on the epidemiological, mammo-echographic, pathological, therapeutic or prognostic aspects of male breast cancer. The aim of this study is to report cases of male breast cancer in Togo by describing the main epidemiological, mammo-echographic and pathological aspects. This was a retrospective, descriptive and analytical study of 10 cases of male patients presenting with breast cancer confirmed by the pathologic examination on the echoguided samples over a period of 6 years in University Teaching Hospital in Lomé. A total of ten patients were retained. The mean age of patients was 55 years with extremes of 39 years and 65 years. All patients had a palpable breast mass. The lesions were classified in 60% American College of Radiology (ACR) 5 and 40% ACR 4. The axillary lymph node invasion rate was 40%. Infiltrating ductal carcinoma was the histologic type diagnosed in all patients. Any breast mass in an elderly male subject is suspected with high predictive value. Mammography ultrasound plays an important role in the diagnosis alongside pathology.

“…The most common symptom is a palpable mass, followed by pain, swelling, erythema, and axillary lymphadenopathy. In IGLM, nipple retraction rarely occurs in women, but it usually occurs in 40-50% of men with breast cancer (14). Inflammatory signs may not always be present clinically; thus, a misdiagnosis of breast cancer can be made (5).…”

Idiopathic Granulomatous Lobular Mastitis in a Male Breast: A Case Report

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Idiopathic granulomatous lobular mastitis (IGLM) that mimics breast cancer both clinically and radiologically is a chronic inflammatory condition of the breast without a known etiology. It usually affects childbearing women and is associated with pregnancy, lactation, or use of oral contraceptives. IGLM in a male breast is extremely rare, and only two case reports have been published. A 60-year-old man was referred to our hospital for right breast mass. He had right breast pain with a small palpable lump for 2 weeks. Ultrasonography (US) was performed with color Doppler US and US elastography. The lesion was diagnosed as IGLM pathologically by 14 gauge core needle biopsy. We describe a very rare case of IGLM arising from a male breast based on ultrasonographic and pathologic findings. IGLM should be considered as a differential diagnosis in male breast diseases, although the imaging findings may not be comparable with typical IGLM.

“…Tkáň prsu je podobná u chlapců a dívek před pubertou, v čase puberty dochází významným změnám u ženského prsu, zatímco u mužů se prs nerozvíjí a je složen z tuku, ojedinělých duktů a většinou bez lobulů (1). Karcinom prsu u mužů se vyskytuje zřídka a jedná se málo poznané maligní onemocnění.…”

Karcinom prsu u mužů je řídké onemocnění a reprezentuje pouze 1 % všech karcinomů prsu. Histologicky dominuje invazivní duktální karcinom s 10% podílem karcinomu in situ. Další histologické typy jsou výjimečné. Na rozdíl od žen, u kterých molekulární subtypy vykazují značnou diverzitu, u mužů významně převažují typy citlivé na hormonální receptory. V chirurgické terapii dominuje mastektomie s biopsií sentinelové uzliny nebo disekcí axily. Adjuvantní radioterapie vždy navazuje na prs záchovný výkon a po mastektomii je indikována dle rozsahu onemocnění. V adjuvantní systémové terapii převažuje hormonální terapie s dominancí Tamoxifenu. Mužský karcinom má množství společných vlastností s ženským karcinomem, proto léčba vychází ze zkušeností s léčením ženského karcinomu. Nové poznatky o mužském karcinomu potvrdily i odlišné vlastnosti, a tak vzniká naléhavá potřeba nových studií, které jsou zaměřeny pouze na karcinom u mužů.Klíčová slova: mužský karcinom, epidemiologie, chirurgická terapie, adjuvantní terapie. Male breast cancerMale breast cancer is rare disease and it represents 1 % breast cancer. Invasive ductal cancer dominates in histology with 10 % portion in situ carcinoma. Other histology types are extraordinary. Female breast carcinoma has different diversion in molecular subtype than male carcinoma, which is predominant hormonal sensitive. Mastectomy is procedure of choice with sentinel node biopsy or axillary dissection in surgery. Radiotherapy is used after breast conservative procedure. Indication after mastectomy depends on stage of the carcinoma. Hormonal therapy is mainly applied in adjuvant therapy and mostly with Tamoxifen. Male carcinoma is very similar with female carcinoma but is not identical. Medical care come out from experience with treatment female carcinoma. Contemporary knowledge about male carcinoma needs new trials oriented on male carcinoma.
