Background

Male breast pathology, though rare, poses significant diagnostic and management challenges. Understanding the imaging characteristics is crucial for accurate assessment.

The majority of breast lesions in men are benign, with gynecomastia being by far the most common etiology. characterized by the growth of breast tissue following hormonal changes.

Breast cancer is rare, accounting for about 1% of cases. Its incidence is too low to justify routine screening.

Other breast conditions originate from skin and subcutaneous tissues, such as lipomas, fat necrosis, adipomastia, abscesses, and epidermal inclusion cysts

Conventional imaging modalities, including mammography and ultrasound, play vital roles in the evaluation of breast abnormalities in men. The awareness of male breast pathology is essential due to its unique clinical presentations and histological features
