However, it has relatively poor prognosis when compared to female breast cancer. Although the importance of genetic predisposition in MBC etiology has been considerably understood, a wide range of gene and protein alterations playing various roles in MBC carcinogenesis point at its polygenic nature rather than single gene inheritance. Therefore, more comprehensive approaches including omics study and related technologies are required to thoroughly manage this malignancy, though such studies have been scarcely performed in MBC. © 2015 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBRCA1BRCA2EGFRGeneticsHer2Hereditary cancerMale breast cancerMolecular markerBook Chapter10.1007/978-81-322-0843-3_132652762-s2.0-84930699037N/A
