Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease and, because of its rarity, its etiology is poorly understood. However, germ-line mutations in breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA2 are known to predispose to MBC. 1 Male carriers of BRCA2 mutations have an 80-100 times high risk for the development of b
