Male breast carcinoma is only 0.5-1 % of all breast malignancies. This rare condition is usually seen in advanced stage when it reaches the size to be palpable. When the lesion is palpable biopsy could be performed without help of imaging. Therefore imaging findings of male breast carcinoma is in limited numbers. It is aimed to discuss about mammographic, ultrasonographic and magnetic resonance imaging findings of infiltrating duct carcinoma in male breast whit this case in the light of reviewed literature.
