Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia: a rare cause of gynecomastia in men.

A 17-year-old male with chest malformation and left breast enlargement underwent surgery for gynecomastia. Histological examination revealed mammary fibrous stroma with ductal hyperplasia and features of pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia. Postoperative follow-up showed no complications, but 8 months later, the patient experienced a mild recurrence with enlargement of the nipple-areolar complex. Although recommended for secondary glandular resection, the patient declined further surgery.

A Retrospective Review of Arthroscopic Shaver Utilization in Adolescent Gynecomastia.

BACKGROUND: This study compares the arthroscopic shaver and liposuction with other established methods for treatment of adolescent gynecomastia. METHODS: Surgical management was via four operative techniques: open excision, open excision/liposuction, arthroscopic shaver/liposuction, or open excision and free nipple graft. Data were collected and compared using independent t tests, linear regression models, and one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS: Patients were stratified by Rohrich grades I -II (low) (N = 47) or III -IV (high) (N = 13). The groups were similar in age (P = 0.662) with lower…

Desmoid fibromatosis in a male breast with gynecomastia: A case report.

We present a unique case of a male patient with a history of gynecomastia, who sought medical evaluation due to the discovery of a palpable left breast mass. Mammography revealed a spiculated mass in the upper quadrant of the left breast at 10-o'clock, and subsequent ultrasound and MRI confirmed its presence. Ultrasound-guided biopsy identified the mass as desmoid fibromatosis. This case highlights the diagnostic challenge posed by desmoid fibromatosis, especially in men, as it can mimic breast cancer both clinically and radiologically. Desmoid fibromatosis, although locally invasive, does not…

Unilateral gynecomastia as an initial presentation of hyperthyroid Graves' disease.

SUMMARY: Graves' disease is an autoimmune condition leading to the activation of and an increase in thyroid hormone secretion. Manifestations of hyperthyroidism in Graves' disease can vary among people. In this case, we report a 24-year-old Thai man with a rare presentation of unilateral gynecomastia along with symptoms of thyrotoxicosis. Physical examination revealed a 3 cm non-tender palpable glandular tissue beneath and around the left areola without nipple discharge and moderately diffuse thyroid enlargement with thyroid bruit. Thyroid function test showed a typical thyrotoxicosis state wi…

Sex Hormone Profile in Pubertal Boys With Gynecomastia and Pseudogynecomastia.

CONTENT: Gynecomastia (defined by proliferation of glandular elements) and pseudogynecomastia (defined by adipose tissue) are frequent in pubertal boys. An association with sex hormones and the growth hormone axis has been discussed. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work is to compare sex hormones, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) between boys with gynecomastia and pseudogynecomastia (separation by ultrasound). DESIGN: An observational study was performed. SETTING: The setting of this study was an outpatient clinic. PARTICIPAN…

Gynecomastia: A Rare Adverse Effect of Methylphenidate in an Adolescent Boy.

Gynecomastia is a benign condition developing in association with localized fat deposition and glandular tissue proliferation in the breast in males, and characterized by breast growth. Drug is one of the most important factors in the etiology of gynecomastia. Methylphenidate is a commonly preferred and well-tolerated drug in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children and adolescents. Gynecomastia is an uncommon side-effect of methylphenidate use. We report a case of bilateral gynecomastia developing in a dose-dependent manner during methylphenidate monotherapy and r…

Treatment of gynecomastia with prednisone: case report and literature review.

This study aimed to report a unique case of primary adrenal insufficiency that was accompanied by painful gynecomastia, which was resolved by treatment with prednisone. Enlargement of the left breast with continuous weakness and generalized nausea in a male was discovered 3 months before admission. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain was normal 1 month before presentation. A physical examination revealed that the diameter of the left breast was 5 cm and the height was 3 cm. Laboratory investigations revealed hyponatremia, with a low serum cortisol level and an elevated prolactin level. Hyp…

Changing practices: The addition of a novel surgical approach to gynecomastia.

INTRODUCTION: Gynecomastia can be a significant impediment to quality of life for men who suffer from this affliction. Numerous surgical techniques have been described in the literature ranging from minimally invasive options such as liposuction to incision based reductions. The standard for the general surgeons at our institution has been subcutaneous mastectomy through a circumareolar incision, which often proved inadequate for patients with grade II or III gynecomastia. In November 2013 we adopted a new technique, the "double donut", that offers the post-operative appearance of a limited in…

[Importance of the exhaustive anamnesis to an unexplained unilateral gynecomastia in a child].

Gynecomastia consists of breast enlargement due to a hormonal imbalance between estrogens and androgens. Unilateral and important breast growth requires ruling underlying pathologic disorders out. Mechanical cause is uncommon, causing enlargement by repeated stimulation. We report a 6-year-old boy with unilateral gynecomastia. Hyperprolactinemia is the only abnormal finding at laboratory tests. After repeated inquiries, a continuous breast selfstimulation is detected. Its relation with gynecomastia is verified because prolactin normalizes and breast regressed in further revisions, after stoppi…

Gynecomastia: a common indication for mammography in men of all age.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Gynecomastia (GM) is the most frequent cause of male breast-related signs and symptoms and represents also the most common indication for mammography (MX) in men. In this article, our 7-year long experience with MX in men suffering from GM is reviewed, and the mammographic features of GM are presented. METHODS: MXs performed in male patients at our institution from January 2009 to January 2016 were retrospectively reviewed and patients with mammographic features of GM were selected. Informed consent was waived by the local institutional review board given the retrospective…

Роль AD-36 как фактора риска для мужчин с гинекологией.

Гинекомастиа широко распространена во всем мире, и Аденовирус-36 (Ад-36), недавно связанный с повышенным осаждением жировой ткани из-за ее близости к жировой ткани, является потенциальным этиологическим агентом в развитии ожирения, и поэтому мы предполагаем, что Аденовирус-36 также может играть определенную роль в развитии гинекологии, возможно, сопровождая увеличение региональной представленности. В поддержку нашей гипотезы мы провели исследование, в котором 33 взрослых мужчины с гинекологией (GP) и 15 взрослых мужчин в качестве группы по контролю за пациентами (HCG). Уровни Лептина и адипоне

Gynecomastia is highly prevalent worldwide and Adenovirus-36 (Ad-36), recently implicated in increased adipose tissue deposition due to its affinity for adipose tissue, is a potential etiological agent in the development of obesity and therefore we hypothesized that Ad-36 may also play a role in the development of gynecomastia by possibly accompanying increa…
