Many people do not know that men can get breast cancer, too. Approximately 1% of all breast cancer cases in Canada are men. As there are fewer cases of male breast cancer, the disease is not well-studied. You may wish to check our Research page for studies that men with breast cancer are eligible to participate in.

We have checked for helpful treatment-related websites and have provided the links below:
