Abstract
Synchronous primary breast and thyroid carcinomas are exceptionally rare, especially in males. This case report presents the first documented instance of synchronous primary breast and thyroid carcinoma in an 89-year-old male. The patient had a right breast mass, cervical lymph nodes and a heterogeneously enhancing lesion in right lobe of thyroid. The histopathological examination confirmed infiltrating ductal carcinoma and metastasis of papillary carcinoma thyroid in cervical lymph node. While hormonal imbalances and genetic mutations have been implicated in synchronous breast and thyroid carcinomas in females, this case underscores the complexity of cancer development and the need for additional research into the factors influencing these rare synchronous malignancies in males.
