CASE REPORT
INTRADUCTAL PAPILLOMA OF THE MALE BREAST
Keywords:
intraductal papilloma, breast, gynecomastia, breast diseasesAbstract
Breast benign tumors, intraductal papilloma and fibroadenomas are common conditions in women; however, they are very rare in males. In this study, we report the case of a male patient, 75 years old, presenting with complaint of bilateral gynecomastia and palpable retroareolar mass in the left breast. The patient was submitted to imaging tests and core biopsy, and the hypothesis of intraductal papilloma was confirmed upon anatomopathological study. The mastology team opted for excision of the lesion and correction of gynecomastia.
