Popis: Purpose: Breast cancer (BC) in males accounts for 10% lower at 5-years and nearly 20% lower at 10-years for males. More males had primary BC tumors under the nipple; the 10-year OS rate for this site was 48.8%. Conclusions:Conclusions: This study reports clinicopathologic characteristics of a large cohort of male BC. Males present at older age, with a greater comorbidity index, at later stages of disease. Increased education regarding the continued risks of male breast cancer may be warranted.
