Abstract EN
Secretory carcinoma of the breast is an extremely rare subtype of breast cancer characterized by intracellular or extracellular secretion and granular eosinophilic cytoplasm of the neoplastic cells.
The disease which was considered to be predominant in younger age group has been recognized in adult population too and tends to show slow growth and indolent behavior.
The disease occurs preferentially in females and only 27 cases have been reported amongst males.
An optimal treatment for the disease subtype has been debated because of the paucity of data.
We report two cases (one female and one male) of this rare disease that underwent treatment at our institution.
