The health providers could mixt up true diagnosis with any benign mass like gynaecomastia. So male breast cancer unfortunatelly is diagnosed in late stage. There is a few knowledge of presenting symptoms for doctors to define the lesion as the cancer in a male breast. The patients presented here was 73 years old and had an painless mass in his own left breast with few bloody nipple discharge. There was no sign for the mass if it could be malign lesion except bloody discharging. Despite there are several diagnostic tests and genetic counseling surveys as well, the little discharging mixing blood up from nipple could be the main point to make a true diagnosis.

discharge as a clinical sign could have a greater effect than many sophisticated diagnostic tests on the making the decision in any patient with family history and job tenderness.
