title: Solitary neurofibroma in the male breast.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Neurofibroma of the male breast outside of neurofibromatosis is extremely rare with only one previous case having been reported.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 48 year old male patient with a neurofibroma in the breast presenting with gynaecomastia is reported. Clinical and mammogram findings with fine needle aspiration cytology and full histology are presented.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  To our knowledge this is only the second case of a neurofibroma in a male breast in the English literature and the first report to include the mammographic findings.
