Breast cancer in men is rare, but it does happen. In 2003, it is estimated that 1,300 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and 400 will die from it. Signs and symptoms of breast cancer in men include: nipple discharge (usually bloody), nipple inversion, breast lump, and occasionally, local pain, itching and pulling sensation. The survival rate of men and women is comparable by stage of disease at the time of diagnosis. However, men are usually diagnosed at a later stage, because they are less likely to report any symptoms. Treatment of breast cancer is the same as treatment for women patients and usually includes a combination of surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and/or hormone therapy.
