Mammographically and sonographically occult male DCIS seen only on breast MRI

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Male breast cancer is a rare entity consisting of less than 1% of all breast cancer diagnoses, in which pure ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) without an invasive component accounts for approximately 10% of these diagnoses. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are essential to ensure favorable outcomes. We present a rare case of mammographically and sonographically occult pure DCIS in a male patient presenting with unilateral bloody nipple discharge, highlighting imaging features and the potential utility of breast MRI that aided diagnosis and management.
