Abstract : Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease accounting for less than 1% of all breast cancer cases and less than 1% of all male cancers.1 The traditional surgical management for male breast cancer is modified radical mastectomy (MRM). Other surgical methods such as breast conservation surgery with or without sentinel lymph node biopsy have been used with variable result2 . We present a rare case of a 63 year old male with 3x3 cm painless breast lump over a period of one year. Trucut biopsy revealed Infiltrating ductal carcinoma. We performed MRM which is treatment of choice in MBC.
