✦ Synopsis

Summary

The xeromammograms of 128 women with breast cancer were coded radiologically according to Wolfe's gradings. The mastectomy specimens were then histologically examined for the presence of ductal abnormality.

The ducts were found to be normal in the cases coded as normal radiologically but they were not always abnormal histologically when considered to be abnormal radiologically. ‘Ductal prominence’ may be due to duct ectasia, intraduct hyperplasia or periductal collagenosis.

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
