OBJECTIVE. The imaging studies of right men with proven primary breast canc
er and preoperative sonography and mammography were reviewed and correlated
with final pathology reports.
CONCLUSION. There were five eases of invasive breast carcinoma and three ca
ses of ductal carcinoma in situ of the papillary subtype, All three cases o
f papillary ductal carcinoma in situ showed cystic features on sonography,
Most (4/5) invasive cancers were solid on sonography, The appearance of a c
omplex cystic mass in the male breast on sonography should suggest the poss
ibility of malignancy and therefore warrants biopsy.
