can men ave breast cancer?

Best Tip

Although extremely rare, breast cancer will kill hundreds of men by the end of this year. The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation explains that men and women, when compared at similar stages of the disease, actually have the same survival rate. However, because men are reluctant to report changes and problems in their breasts, their condition is diagnosed later, often after the cancer has spread, increasing the risk of fatality.

The foundation reports that this year, 1,300 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 31 percent of them will die, compared with 175,000 cases of female breast cancer and a 25 percent mortality rate. Source(s): http://www.cnn.com/health/cancer/9909/30...
