Diabetic mastopathy in men: imaging findings in two patients.

Abstract

The classic imaging findings of diabetic mastopathy, an uncommon entity manifesting in patients with a history of long-standing insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, have been reported in the literature in women but not, to the authors' knowledge, in men. Two men with diabetic mastopathy presented with palpable breast masses. The clinical histories of the men in whom this condition was diagnosed were similar to those reported for women with the condition. The mammographic findings in both men, at presentation, were suggestive of gynecomastia.
