Abstract

Paget's disease is an eczematous skin change of the nipple, usually associated with an underlying breast malignancy. Paget’s disease of the breast is a rare entity with an incidence of 1.4-3% of all the mammary malignancies. Of all the malignant breast cancers, 1% occur in male patients, and thus Paget’s disease of male breast is extremely rare. The most frequent presenting signs include ulceration, eczema, nipple discharge, bleeding, and crust formation. A case of Paget’s disease of male nipple is reported in view of clinical rarity of this condition.
