Abstract

Male breast cancers accounts for less than 1% of all breast cancer cases. Invasive papillary carcinoma of breast is a rare form of breast carcinoma. Here we report a case of invasive papillary carcinoma of breast in a 60 year old male who presented with a swelling in the right breast of 5 months duration. FNAC was done and the diagnosis was papillary neoplasm with cystic component. The patient underwent mastectomy following an excisional biopsy. In our patient after mastectomy the patient had undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy and he is doing well now. We report this case due to its rarity and due to limited nature of data.

Keywords: Invasive papillary carcinoma, Male breast cancer, Mastectomy.
