Male breast cancer is an uncommon disease accounting for only 1% of all breast cancers. We present the evaluation, treatment and outcome of male patients seen with breast cancer in our institution. Male patients that had histological diagnosis of breast cancer from 2001 to 2010 were retrospectively evaluated. After evaluation patients were treated with modified radical mastectomy. Combination chemotherapy was given to patients with positive axillary lymph nodes. Radiotherapy and hormonal therapy were also employed. There were 57 male patients with breast cancer which accounted for 9% of all breast cancers seen during the study period. Their mean age was 59 ± 2.3 years. The mean tumor diameter was 13 ± 2.5 cm. Fifty three (93%) patients presented with advanced disease including 15 with distant metastasis. Four patients with stage II disease were treated with modified radical mastectomy, chemotherapy and tamoxifen. Of the 30 patients with sage III disease that had modified radical mastectomy, complete axillary clearance and tumor free margins were achieved in 25. Overall 21 (36.8%) patients were tumor free at one year. Overall 5-year survival was 22.8%. In conclusion, male patients with breast cancer present with advanced disease which is associated with poor outcome of treatment.

Male breast cancer is a rare but important condition accounting for only 1% of breast cancer worldwide and less than 1% of all male malignancies. Occult male breast cancer is an extremely rare type of male breast cancer that manifests as axillary metastases without an identifiable breast lesion. We report a case of triple-negative occult male breast cancer who underwent modified radical mastectomy.

Background: Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease with a rising incidence trend. The major risk factors related to MBC are a positive family history of breast cancer (BC) and BRCA1/2 mutations, which indicate a relevant genetic role. Methods: In this retrospective series, we enrolled 69 male patients presenting with male breast cancer (MBC) between 01/01/1992 and 31/12/2018, and 26 high-risk not-affected men presenting between 01/01/2016 and 31/12/2018. Participants’ electronic clinical records were reviewed. Patients’ data reported age at diagnosis, tumor characteristics, therapeutic management, and BRCA1/2 status as well as a family history of breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer (PCa) in first-degree relatives. Results: We analyzed 69 MBC patients. Median age was 64 years. The majority of tumors diagnosed were of an early TNM stage. The most frequent histological subtype was invasive ductal carcinoma (76.7%). Hormone receptors were positive in >90% of MBC cases. Nearly all patients underwent modified radical mastectomy or total mastectomy. Adjuvant endocrine therapy was delivered in 59.4%. Among MBC-affected patients, we recorded a high percentage of a positive family history of BC. Mutational analysis for the BRCA1/2 genes was performed in 17 MBC patients; 11.8% were carriers of BRCA2 pathogenic mutations. Among 26 healthy high-risk subjects included in this case series, 4 were BRCA1 mutation carriers and 9 were BRCA2 mutation carriers. Discussion: We evaluated the distribution of clinicopathological characteristics in MBC subjects and assessed the frequency of mutations in the BRCA genes in affected patients and healthy high-risk subjects, with the aim of proposing a surveillance program for BC and PCa.

e13670 Background: Loss-of-function mutations in PALB2 gene are associated with increased risk for breast cancer and possibly pancreatic, ovarian, male breast, prostate, colorectal as others cancers. In Brazil it has been estimated that up to 1,516 new cases of hereditary breast cancer for 2020 in the North and Northeast regions. Analysis of susceptibility gene mutations helps identify precisely the high-risk patient and their families, whom need specific and personalized clinical management as high-risk individuals. Methods: Twenty-six patients with pathogenic mutations in PALB2 gene identify by next-generation sequencing from states of Bahia (11), Ceará (9), Pernambuco (5) and Rondônia (1) in the North and Northeast regions were analyzed. Results: Most of the patients analyzed had only breast cancer (80%), including two cases of male breast cancer (9,5%); the others were isolated cases of endometrial cancer (4%), breast and pancreas cancers (4%), breast and lung cancers (4%), only ovarian cancer (4%) and ovarian and breast cancers (4%). Most cancers were stage II or III (65%). Family history of cancer was observed in 22/26 (84%); the most common tumors were breast, prostate, pancreas and thyroid. The founder mutations were more frequent in exons: 4 (58%) and 12 (15%). Eleven variants were found as follow: c.1240C > T (19%); c.3256delC (15%); c.1671_1674delTATT (11.5%); c.355delC (11.5%); NC_000016.9:g.(?_23632673)_(23652488_?)del (11,5%). The greatest variety of mutations was found in the state of Bahia, probably due to the greater number of patients included (42%). Conclusions: These data suggest that changes in clinical management of PALB2 patients are needed since the phenotype observed exhibited pattern of hereditary tumors, including male breast cancer. Besides that, PALB2 gene should be included in painel gene analysis in patients from the North and Northeast of Brazil because its high frequency of pathogenic variants.

Purpose BRCA2 rearrangements are rare genetic events. A large BRCA2 genomic insertion was recurrently observed in our participants, and we sought to characterize it at the molecular and phenotypic level. Patients and Methods We studied 210 high-risk breast/ovarian cancer families. Fifty-three probands were fully screened for BRCA1/2 mutations, and three of 53 had a large insertion in exon 3 of BRCA2. This finding was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR), and sequencing. An additional 157 consecutive families were screened for this mutation by a three-step PCR method. Phenotype and haplotype analysis was also performed. Results Sixteen BRCA mutations were observed in 19 of 53 patients (36% detection rate). A recurrent Alu motif insertion in position c.156_157 was observed after sequencing of an abnormal fragment obtained after the amplification of BRCA2 exon 3. RT-PCR revealed exon 3 skipping. Screening of this rearrangement identified 14 additional families (out of 157). In total, 17 (8%) of 210 high-risk families ascertained in our clinic were positive for this mutation. Segregation of a common haplotype (from D13S260 to D13S1695) confirmed a common origin, estimated to have occurred 2,400 to 2,600 years ago. The following four cancer phenotypes were observed in the 17 positive families: female breast (n = 9), male breast (n = 4), breast/ovarian (n = 2), and heterogeneous (n = 2). Male breast cancer was more frequently observed in c.156_157insAlu–positive families compared with negative families (23% v 12%, respectively), and 33% of all male breast cancer families with an identified BRCA mutation were c.156_157insAlu positive. Conclusion c.156_157insAlu is a founder mutation of Portuguese origin and is the most frequent BRCA2 rearrangement described to date.

First Case

Breast cancer in men is uncommon, and even more rare is the simultaneous presentation of two different malignancies. A 39-year-old man was diagnosed with both breast cancer and axillary lymphoma. Familiar history revealed that his mother died because of breast cancer. The patient underwent fine needle aspiration leading to the diagnosis of malignant lesion. Modified radical mastectomy was performed. Histology revealed an infiltrating ductal carcinoma 2.8 cm wide, grade 2, with vascular and lymphatic invasion. Surprisingly, one of the second level nodes was confirmed as a high-grade large B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. No family inheritance or gene mutations (BRCA 1 and 2) were found. The patient underwent local radiotherapy, followed by 6 chemotherapy courses (RCHOP) and treatment with tamoxifen 20 mg/daily. To our knowledge, this is the first case reported in literature of male breast cancer and axillary lymphoma simultaneously confirmed in the same patient.

19681 Background: Male breast cancer is uncommon, 1%(0.7 %)of all breast cancer. Nevertheless, the incidence has climbed 26% over the past 25 years. Objetive: Analyze the form of presentation and clinical evolution of patients with male breast cancer studied from 1977 to 2005. Methods: From 1977 to 2005 53 charts were analyzed: age, clinical presentation, stage (st), histological characteristics and nodal involvement. Results: Age: 33 years to 83 years (median= 59 years). Mean durations of symptoms before presentations: 11 months (m) (range 1 - 84 m.) . Forty-six (86.7%) patients (pts) had history of breast lumps, 9 (17%) were painful. Skin involvement and ulceration were present in 5 (9.43%) and 4 (7.54 %) respectively. One case of bilateralism was found. Seven (13.2%) st. I; 18 (33.96%) st. II; 20 (37.73%) st. III and 7 (13.2%) st. IV. Radical mastectomy was done in 41 pts (77.35%). Invasive ductal carcinoma was the most common histological type in 45 (84.9%). One case of lobular carcinoma was found. 60.4% of tumours expressed hormonal receptor. Adyuvant treatment: Adriamycin-based chemotherapy in 20 pts and CMF in 8 pts. Hormonotherapy was offered in 10 (19%) pts of the previous group, radiotherapy to 12 pts. twenthy pts (37.73%) presented recurrence; most common was bone in 10. The st. I and II estimated 5-year survival rate was 68% IC 95% (44–84%), st. III was 44% IC 95% (23 - 67%), st. IV (median = 24 m) with range (16 - 56 m). The 72% IC 95% (48–88%) patients st. I and II was free of disease at the 5-years, st. III was free 24% IC 95% (9–49%), st. IV (median = 7,5 m) with range (7–14 m). Conclusions: The media age at diagnosis was 59 years (10 years less than the international bibliography). (IB). Our group had longer time to presentation: 11 vs. 6 m., (IB) and most of them where in st. III. Hormonal receptore were positive in 60%. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
