ABSTRACT
Background: mammary fibromatosis is a rare pathology. It constitutes 0.2% of breast cancers, where men are exceptional. The definitive diagnosis is histological.
Clinical case: we report the case of a male of 52 years, diagnosed with breast fibromatosis after pathologic study of tumor in right breast. Is programmed surgery for excision with wide margins. We performed mastectomy subcutaneous fibromatosis with pathologic study with clear margins. The postoperative course was uncomplicated. Adjuvant therapy did not say. At 6 months follow-up remains free of disease.
The treatment of choice is surgical excision with wide margins. Adjuvant treatment is controversial.
Conclusions: the fibromatosis in the breast is very rare and exceptional occurrence in men. Surgery is the definitive; few results exist with adjuvant therapy.
