Elastosis in ER α-positive male breast cancer

In conclusion, despite high ER α expression, male BC showed significantly less elastosis than female BC. Elastosis did not show clinicopathological correlations or prognostic value. Therefore, elastosis seems to be a less useful ERα tissue biomarker with less clinical significance in male BC compared with females, pointing towa rds important BC sex differences.
