Steroid Hormone Receptors in Male Breast Cancer

Abstract

Male breast cancer, a rare occurrence, has been shown to have a similar prognosis to that of female breast cancer if the stages of disease are compared. We report a case of male cancer that illustrates the importance of steroid hormone receptor studies of such patients. (The J Histotechnol 14:123, 1991)
