Atypical ductal hyperplasia in men with gynecomastia: what is their breast cancer risk?

ConclusionOur study is the first to provide follow-up information for males with ADH. With 6  years of mean follow-up, no male in our series has developed breast cancer. This suggests that either ADH in men does not pose the same risk as ADH in women or that surgical excision of symptomatic gynecomastia in men effectively reduces the risk of breast cancer.
