[Mammary gland carcinoma in men].
Over a 10-year period, a total of 403 patients with mammary gland carcinoma--398 women (98.8%) and five men (1.2%)--are operated in the Clinic of Thoracic Surgery & Oncology at the Military Medical Academy. The mean age in men, as compared to that in women, is nearly 12 years older. In one patient tumorectomy is done for "cleanliness" on account of the seriously impaired general condition. In the remainder the operative intervention is radical mastectomy after Patey or Pirogov, with meticulous axillary lymph dissection. In all men operated on, gynecomastia concurrent to the underlying disease is found. The histological patterns of mammary gland cancer in male patients is identical to the histological picture in women.
