Abstract

Sixteen new patients with carcinoma of the male breast presented to St Bartholomew's Hospital in the 20-year period from 1952 to 1971. Twelve (75 per cent) had Stage III or Stage IV disease. Seven of those in Stage III were thus classified by reason of the advanced (T3) local lesions and were treated by radical mastectomy. Results of treatment are recorded. The most significant prognostic factor is probably lymph node involvement. Orchidectomy is recommended in the management of disseminated disease and hormone assay studies may help to determine whether subsequent adrenalectomy will be benefit. Two stiking remissions following orchidectomy are presented.

Background. Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the male breast is an uncommon disease, accounting for approximately 7% of all male breast carcinomas. Compared with invasive carcinomas of the breast, the prognosis associated with DCIS in men is excellent; however, clinical features, pathology, and tr
