Male Breast Cancer

Breast cancer in men makes up less than one percent of all cases of breast cancer. More than 90 percent of the cancers in men are invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), though men can also get ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), inflammatory breast cancer and Paget’s disease of the nipple. Breast cancer in men is usually treated the same way as in women, and survival rates in both genders are similar.
