The aim of this presentation is to: 1) Briefly discuss the anatomic and imaging appearance of the male breast  and its differences from the female breast. 2) Test the viewer's knowledge of classic appearance of  male breast lesions that should not be biopsied and lesions that should be biopsied through a series of cases. 3) Utilize these cases to teach mammographic and sonographic characteristics of male breast lesions that render them benign, equivoval, or malignant.  

Anatomy of the male breast and differences between male and female breasts. Mammographic and sonographic appearances of the normal male breast. Series of cases of benign and malignant male breast lesions asking the viewer if they would biopsy or not biopsy in each situation.                                                                                                                                                                  Cases will include: Dendritic and nodular gynecomastia, pseudogynecomastia, hematoma, fibroadenoma, myofibroblastoma, subareolar abscess, invasive ductal carcinoma, angiolipoma, sebaceous cyst, primary papillary carcinoma, breast schwannoma, and intramammary lymph nodes Relevant clinical history and followup findings will be provided. Through these cases, the viewer will learn differential diagnoses of various male breast lesions and learn strategies to distinguish benign from malignant and equivocal lesions.
