Background The etiology of male breast cancer (MBC) is poorly understood. In particular,
the extent to which the genetic basis of MBC differs from female breast cancer (FBC) is …

Simple Summary Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease. Genetic factors predispose to
male breast cancer. Germline and/or genetic and/or epigenetic alterations at the somatic …

Purpose The role of genetic predisposition in male breast cancer (MBC) patients who test
negative for a BRCA mutation is unclear. The aim of this study is to define the association …

Purpose Genetic predisposition to male breast cancer (MBC) is not well understood. The
aim of this study was to better define the predisposition genes contributing to MBC and the …

Breast cancer (BC) in men is rare and genetic predisposition is likely to play a relevant role
in its etiology. Inherited mutations in BRCA1/2 account for about 13% of all cases and …

Simple Summary Male breast cancer is a rare disease, representing around 0.5% of the
malignances in men. Although they receive the same treatment as women with breast …

It has become customary to extrapolate from the results of treatment trials for female
breastcancer and apply them to males with the disease. In the absence of results from …

It is well-known that male breast cancer (MBC) susceptibility is mainly due to high-
penetrance BRCA1/2 mutations. Here, we investigated whether common low-penetrance …

Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare tumor, accounting for less than 1% of all breast cancers.
In MBC, genetic predisposition plays an important role; however, only a few studies have …

Purpose Male breast cancer is associated with female breast cancer in families but whether
male breast cancer clusters with other discordant cancers has not been studied. As …
