Abstract:
Prostate cancer and male breast cancer are similar in many ways, including the potential role of steroidal hormones in their pathogenesis and shared genetic abnormalities. However, the combination of these cancers in the same patient is rare. Herein, the case of a male patient, diagnosed with synchronous prostate and breast cancers, is reported.
