Most male breast diseases are benign, although malignancies can also occur. Gynecomastia, the most common abnormality in the male breast, has characteristic imaging findings differentiating it from cancer. Fewer than 1% of patients with breast cancer are men, but the incidence of male breast cancer is increasing worldwide. Additionally, breast cancer often presents at a more advanced stage in men than in women due to delayed diagnosis. Understanding imaging features of male breast disease is important for an accurate diagnosis and optimal care. This article reviews ultrasonography and mammography findings of benign and malignant diseases of the male breast.
大多数男性乳腺疾病是良性的，不过恶性肿瘤也可能发生。男性乳腺最常见的异常是男性乳房肥大症，其具有可将其与癌症区分开来的特征性影像学表现。乳腺癌患者中男性不到1%，但全球男性乳腺癌的发病率正在上升。此外，由于诊断延迟，乳腺癌在男性中往往比在女性中呈现出更晚期的阶段。了解男性乳腺疾病的影像学特征对于准确诊断和优化治疗很重要。本文综述了男性乳腺良恶性疾病的超声和乳腺X线摄影表现。
