Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease and constitutes less than 1% of all breast carcinoma cases. Although MBC most often presents with a palpable mass, failure to recognise the significance of other symptoms may lead to a delay in diagnosis. Nipple discharge (ND) is a rare symptom in men, but it may herald an underlying malignancy. We present two cases of (MBC) presenting with ND and emphasise the importance of this clinical sign in suspecting underlying malignancy and an opportunity for early diagnosis. We also discuss the clinical significance of ND in men in relation to current literature.
男性乳腺癌（MBC）是一种罕见疾病，在所有乳腺癌病例中占比不到1%。尽管MBC最常表现为可触及的肿块，但未能认识到其他症状的重要性可能导致诊断延迟。乳头溢液（ND）在男性中是一种罕见症状，但它可能预示着潜在的恶性肿瘤。我们报告两例表现为乳头溢液的男性乳腺癌病例，并强调这一临床体征在怀疑潜在恶性肿瘤及早期诊断机会方面的重要性。我们还结合当前文献讨论了男性乳头溢液的临床意义。
