Cancer du sein chez l’homme: la reconstruction

Reconstruction of the areolo-mamillary area in men

Resume

Une demande de reconstruction du mamelon et de l’aréole du sein droit, illustrée en détail, fait passer en revue le cancer du sein chez l’homme, affection plutôt rare et dont la reconstruction n’a jamais été retrouvée dans la littérature.

Abstract

A 47 years old man had, seven years before, a radical mastectomy of the right breast, for cancer.

In this paper we describe the men breast cancer and we illustrate the reconstruction of the areolo-mamillary area.

We never find in the literature this type of description, which is the same, done, in women breast reconstructions.
