“…Non-lactational mastitis is a breast inflammatory condition in non-breastfeeding women. The two major entities of non-lactational mastitis are periductal mastitis and idiopathic granulomatous mastitis and both of them primarily affect young women 5–8 .…”

Little is known regarding the association of non-lactational mastitis women with breast cancer risk. This population-based cohort study examined the breast cancer risk in women with non-lactational mastitis. We identified 3,091 women with non-lactational mastitis between 2000 and 2011 using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. We performed 1:4 propensity score matching by age, socioeconomic status and comorbidities and identified 12,364 women without non-lactational mastitis. The mean age of women with non-lactational mastitis was 37.9 years; these women had a higher breast cancer risk than the comparison group (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.94, 95% confidence interval: 1.30–2.90). The incidence rates of breast cancer in women with non-lactational mastitis and the comparison group were 14.79 and 7.57 per 10,000 person-years, respectively. Furthermore, non-lactational mastitis was a risk factor for breast cancer in women aged <50 years, women with lower socioeconomic status and women with hormonal medication (p < 0.05). Women who had more episodes of non-lactational mastitis had a higher risk of developing a breast cancer. Thus, the risk of breast cancer in women with non-lactational mastitis is significantly higher than those without non-lactational mastitis.

“…Similarly, alcohol consumption had no correlation with the development of duct ectasia (P value 1.00). Coffee consumption is a matter of great investigations whether or not it is associated with the development of benign breast disorders including duct ectasia, in our study, duct ectasia has a significant correlation with increasing coffee consumption (P value 0.034), however most studies correlated this to the development of mastalgia rather than duct ectasia [ [20] , [21] , [22] ].…”

“…Most benign breast disorders are more common at young ages particularly in the second and the third decades of life, in the current study the mean age of the patient were 35.81 years, and 86.4 were menstruating, most of them (79.9%) of them had regular cycles. Late menarche may have a possible correlation with the development of future mammary duct ectasia, in the current study, this like was not present (P value 0.735) [ 19 , 20 ].…”

“…During examination most patients have pain and tenderness, nodularity may be felt during examination, and these three findings are strongly associated with the diagnosis of duct ectasia and may be strongly suggestive for the disease (P values 0.000) for each of them. A subareolar mass and tenderness is a frequent finding, abscess must be excluded and the appropriate management given [ 20 ].…”

Imaging findings and classification of the common and uncommon male breast diseases

Male breast hosts various pathological conditions just like "female breast." However, histo-anatomical diversities with female breast lead to many differences regarding the frequency and presentation of diseases, the radiologic appearance of lesions, the diagnostic algorithm, and malignity features. Radiological modalities may play an important role in evaluating male breast lesions. Although some imaging findings are non-specific, having knowledge of certain imaging characteristics and radiologic patterns is the key to reduce the number of differential diagnoses or to reach an accurate diagnosis. Male breast imaging is mostly based on physical examination and is required for the complaints of palpable mass, breast enlargement, tenderness, nipple discharge, and nipple-skin changes. The majority of the male breast lumps are benign and the most common reason is gynecomastia. Although it is difficult to exclude malignancy in some cases, gynecomastia often has distinguishable imaging features. Pseudogynecomastia is another differential diagnosis that may be confused with gynecomastia. The distinction is important for the treatment plan. Apart from gynecomastia, other male breast lesions form a highly heterogeneous group and can be classified based on "Tissue origin," "Histopathological type and behavior," and "Radiologic features" for both simplification and comprehensive understanding. This article mainly focuses on emphasizing the results of basic histo-anatomical differences of male and female breasts, classifying male breast lesions, covering the spectrum of male breast diseases, and assisting radiologists in recognizing the imaging findings, in interpreting them through a holistic approach, in making a differential diagnosis, and in being a part of proper patient management.
