    Abstract

    Currently, there are no clear indications or guidelines for performing breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in male patients diagnosed with primary breast cancer. The literature is also very limited on the usage of breast MRI in male patients. Although it is not common or recommended as a routine clinical practice to perform breast MRI in male patients even in the setting of a diagnosis of breast cancer, there are few instances where MRI may help clinicians and surgeons. With a comprehensive review of cases that was performed at our institution over the last 10 years, the readers may achieve better understanding of when it may be helpful to perform breast MRI in male patients.
