Pleomorphic Lobular Carcinoma in a Male Breast : A Rare Occurrence

الملخص EN

Carcinoma of male breast is uncommon as it accounts for 0.7% of total breast cancer.

The pathology of male breast cancer is remarkably similar to that of cancers seen in women.

The same histological subtypes of invasive cancer are present, although papillary carcinomas (both invasive and in situ) are more common and lobular carcinomas are less common.

The predominant histological type, in males, as in females, reported in large series has been infiltrating ductal carcinoma with scattered reports of infiltrating lobular carcinoma, all of them of classical type except for a single case of pleomorphic infiltrating lobular carcinoma.

Herein, we describe a case of pleomorphic lobular carcinoma occurring in male breast.
