description Male breast cancer is far less common compared to female breast cancer. Paget’s disease of the breast (PDB) is a rare disease, making it even rarer in men. It often presents with eczematous patches over the nipple and areola region, mimics benign dermatological conditions, and can result in a greatly delayed diagnosis. This report presents a rare case of PDB in a 70-year-old male and includes a review of its clinical presentation, radiographic findings, histology, carcinogenic potential, and management.
