Hi,
Male breast cancer is similar to female and the management is also similar.
The difference between a male and female breast cancer is in Staging.
All breast cancers are staged into Stage IV--- advanced breast carcinoma
Management varies from individual to individual within the standard protocol management.
Simple mastectomy with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Hi,
Male breast cancer can be cured depending upon the type of cancer, the extent of involvement of tissue, spread to lymph nodes and metastasis to distant organs. The management plan would be decided by your oncologist and will involve a combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
