Malignant cysts of the male breast

W S Stebbings et al. Postgrad Med J. 1987 Nov.

Abstract

Two cases of male breast carcinoma presenting as cystic swellings are reported. Cysts of the male breast are rare, but unlike cysts in female breasts are more likely to represent significant pathology. We recommend consideration of excision biopsy of isolated cysts in male breasts.
