    Can men have breast cancer, too?

    Question #107807. Asked by lilacmay4. (Aug 08 09 1:32 PM)

    Yes, breast cancer occurs mainly in women, but men can get it, too. Many people do not realize that men have breast tissue and that they can develop breast cancer.

    One of the best-known cases of male breast cancer is Rod Roddy, the long-time announcer of "The Price Is Right." Roddy had both colon cancer and breast cancer, ultimately succumbing on October 27, 2003.
