Sumario:To our knowledge, this is the first case reported in the English literature of simultaneous occult male metastatic breast cancer presenting as pulmonary nodules and right axillary lymph node metastasis in a chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patient and is the second case of simultaneous male breast cancer and CLL reported. The first case was reported by Dubashi et al. [Curr Oncol. 2011;18(2):e101–2] in 2011. This unique clinical and pathological entity presents various challenges in its management, including early detection, screening, and treatment.
