Journal Title: HASEKİ TIP BÜLTENİ - Year 2019, Vol 57, Issue 3
Abstract
Male breast cancer accounts for less than 1% of all breast carcinomas and 0.17 to -1.5% of all cancers seen in men. The incidence of synchronous bilateral male breast cancer has been reported to be 1.5%-2% of all male breast cancers. Although it can affect men of any age, the median age at diagnosis is 60-70 years. Herein, we report a case of bilateral/synchronous male breast cancer.
