TEACHING POINTS

1) To describe and illustrate radiological features of breast male diseases. 2) To learn about the differential diagnosis and diagnostic difficulties. 3) To correlate the imaging with histology of benign and malignant lesions. 4) To discuss the appropriate clinical management.  

TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE

It is important for radiologists to understand the appearances of both benign and malignant male breast lesions. We will present a pictoral essay of our experience, including clinical and imaging findings (mammograms, US and CT) with pathologic correlation. 1) We first review the normal anatomy of male breast. 2) The list of cases includes: Benign conditions: Pseudogynecomastia, Gynecomastia ( glandular, dendritic and nodular pattern), Diabetic Fibrous Mastopathy; Epidermoid Cyst Inclusion; Myofibroblastoma; Mastitis: Mondor’s disease; Lipoma and Fibroadenolipoma. Malignant lesions: Ductal Carcinomas, Papillary Carcinoma and costal Chondrosarcoma (detected on mammogram). Finally we show an unusual anatomical variant corresponding to the Sternalis muscle which can induce to errors on mammograms 3) Summary of main points to remember. 3) At the end of the exhibit the viewer will be familiarized with the diagnosis of male breast disorders.
