Breast carcinoma accounts for 0.2% of all malignancies in males. Eighty-five percent of cases present as a subareolar mass and can be associated with ulceration or nipple discharge. Metastases, as in female breast carcinoma, are most commonly seen in the lungs, bones, brain, liver, lymph nodes, and skin.
