Hereditary Risks of Male Breast Cancer in a Multi-Gene Panel Testing Cohort.

While the population-based risk for breast cancer in males remains relatively low (1:1000), inherited predisposition can significantly raise this to as high as 10%, in men who carry a mutation in the BRCA2 gene. Lifetime breast cancer risks of 1-2% have also been reported in men who carry a mutation in BRCA1.
