[Radiological aspects of cancer of the breast in men (author's transl)]. / Aspects radiologiques du cancer du sein chez l'homme.

ABSTRACT

The radiological signs of malignant mammary tumours in men, which are similar to those observed in women, are reviewed. Several points have to be remembered, however; the common retro-mammillary location, the frequent nodular character, the skin involvement and the usual mamillary retraction, and, finally, the absence of characteristic microcalcifications. The interest of mammography to rate T in the TNM classification is also mentioned.
