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.
男性乳腺癌并不常见，占乳腺癌总数的0.7%。男性乳腺癌的病理与女性乳腺癌极为相似。侵袭性癌的组织学亚型相同，尽管乳头状癌（侵袭性和原位性）更为常见，而小叶癌则较少见。在大宗病例报道中，与女性一样，男性乳腺癌的主要组织学类型一直是浸润性导管癌，也有少数浸润性小叶癌的报道，除1例多形性浸润性小叶癌外，其余均为经典类型。在此，我们描述1例发生于男性乳腺的多形性小叶癌病例。
