title: [Cancer of the male breast with atypical ductal hyperplasia and contralateral gynecomastia].
abstract: A case of right mammary invasive ductal carcinoma in young man with atypical ductal hyperplasia and gynecomastia of the second breast is described. The review of the existing literature stress the rarity of this observation. Nevertheless, in all cases of male mammary carcinoma the accurate examination must always include the contralateral breast to search the possible precancerous lesions or etiologic factors.
