Abstract

Gynaecomastia is the least rare manifestation of the male breast disease. Urologists must therefore be able to distinguish the various forms of gynaecomastia, eliminate a testicular tumour and identify the main causes by performing a simple but complete assessment. Medical treatment is fairly disappointing. Surgical treatment is required in patients presenting with complications or when persistent gynaecomastia is aesthetically bothersome.
