Ultrasound of male breast cancer

Breast carcinoma in men is a rare disease, with an incidence of 1:100,000. It is found approximately 100 times more rarely in men than in women. Breast carcinoma represents 0.2-1.5 % of all malignant tumors in men (Crichlow 1972; Ostrovskaya et al. 1988). Studies demonstrate that black men are affected more often than white men, regardless of age. The incidence of breast cancer in black men is 1.8:100,000, compared with 1.1:100,000 in white men (Anderson et al. 2004). © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.
