Two hundred and forty histologically proven cases of breast carcinoma spanning a period 17 yrs were identified and 13 of these were in males. Nine of these male patients had FNAC performed and were reported by the same cytopathologist (L.I.B.). In 8 of these cases FNAC was diagnostic of carcinoma. No material from FNA was obtained for diagnosis from one of these patients. We concluded that FNA is a useful technique in the diagnosis of male breast carcinoma. | Gov't Doc #: | 8743814 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/13450 | Journal: | Pathology | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8743814 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Aged Biopsy, Needle Breast Neoplasms, Male.diagnosis.pathology Carcinoma.diagnosis.pathology Humans Male Middle Aged Retrospective Studies |
