Epidermal inclusion cyst in male breast: how to differentiate from other male breast lesions

Male breast lesions are relatively less common. The most encountered malignant lesion in the male breast is ductal adenocarcinoma; and benign lesions are gynecomastia, fibrocystic disease, intramammary lymph node, fibroadenoma, lipoma and epidermal inclusion cyst (EIC), respectively [5,6]. To date,...

Sumario:Male breast lesions are relatively less common. The most encountered malignant lesion in the male breast is ductal adenocarcinoma; and benign lesions are gynecomastia, fibrocystic disease, intramammary lymph node, fibroadenoma, lipoma and epidermal inclusion cyst (EIC), respectively [5,6]. To date, there had been published only a few cases of EIC of the male breast in literature [3,5,6]. In this case, we aimed to present a new case of EIC with its clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics in the male breast. It had benign sonographic and magnetic resonance imaging findings but had also malignant imaging findings with diffusion restriction on diffusion-weighted imaging.
