Dr. Rachel Jimenez
A study at Massachusetts General Hospital en Brigham and Women’s Hospital/Dana-Farber Cancer Institute investigated management and outcomes of men diagnosed with primary breast cancer. Approximately 1/3 of patients experienced at least a 3-month delay to presentation, which was not associated with worse survival. The majority of the patients received standard of care therapy. The 5-year OS, BCSS, DFS and LRF rates were 91.5%. 96.2%, 86%, and 4.8%, respectively.
