Common to both sexes is aging, although the average age at presentation is slightly older in men about 66, versus 61 years in women. [curetoday.com]

The aim of the present study was to describe and analyse several pathological features in male breast cancer. [eortc.org]

(See Workup.) Increased public awareness and improved screening have led to earlier diagnosis, at stages amenable to complete surgical resection and curative therapies. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Treatments to reduce your risk If you have an increased risk of developing breast cancer, treatment is available to reduce your risk. [nhsinform.scot]

Among these, 278 (77%) had oncological treatment according to guidelines, while 39 (11%) had no oncological treatment at all or had treatment, which did not meet the recommendations. [tandfonline.com]

Monahan also suggested that disparities in the treatment that men and women with breast cancer receive could explain the disparity in mortality rates. Men don’t always get the same attention and treatment options that women get, she said. [statnews.com]

Treatment Age Age itself does not greatly affect breast cancer treatment. Treatment is based mainly on cancer stage, tumor grade and tumor characteristics, such as hormone receptor status and HER2 status. [ww5.komen.org]

The difference between the different types is mainly in terms of breast cancer prognosis. [healthengine.com.au]

Early diagnosis of the disease can lead to a good prognosis and a high survival rate. [uspharmacist.com]

The latter cancer subtypes have highly prevalent hormone receptor expressions and are etiologically linked to estrogen exposure. [academic.oup.com]

These data support the evidence that some breast cancers share etiologic factors with ovarian cancer. [emedicine.medscape.com]
