Carcinoma of the male breast: a 27-year community experience. 1991

Surgical Service, VA Medical Center, Huntington.

Carcinoma of the male breast is relatively rare and the prognosis is usually more ominous than in the female. Radical mastectomy is advocated for optimal therapy but lesser procedures are used for a variety of reasons. After observing several recent cases of male breast cancer, we reviewed the tumor registries for the past 27 years at Marshall University affiliated hospitals. Thirteen cases were found and evaluated. This article presents treatment, survival and a review of the current therapy.

D003528	Carcinoma, Adenoid Cystic	Carcinoma characterized by bands or cylinders of hyalinized or mucinous stroma separating or surrounded by nests or cords of small epithelial cells. When the cylinders occur within masses of epithelial cells, they give the tissue a perforated, sievelike, or cribriform appearance. Such tumors occur in the mammary glands, the mucous glands of the upper and lower respiratory tract, and the salivary glands. They are malignant but slow-growing, and tend to spread locally via the nerves.
