A case of metastasis to the male breast from prostate carcinoma is reported. For proper treatment, it is important to differentiate primary from metastatic tumours. Prostate-specific antigen screening should be strongly considered in all breast masses seen in patients with known prostatic carcinoma. One cannot assume that breast enlargement in these patients is solely due to oestrogen-induced gynecomastia.
本文报告了一例前列腺癌转移至男性乳腺的病例。为了进行恰当的治疗,区分原发性肿瘤和转移性肿瘤很重要。对于已知患有前列腺癌的患者出现的所有乳腺肿块,都应强烈考虑进行前列腺特异性抗原筛查。不能假定这些患者的乳腺增大仅仅是由雌激素引起的男性乳房发育所致。
