Abstract
- Gynecomastia involves enlargement of the male breast secondary to the proliferation of mammary ductules. It is seen in a number of conditions such as cirrhosis, chronic renal failure, Klinefelter syndrome, and leprosy. Recognition of the cutaneous manifestations of these conditions can help in identifying the correct etiology of the gynecomastia.
