Abstract

We describe the case of a 24-year-old hemophilic man who had been a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive for the past 22 years and presented to our hospital with bilateral breast enlargement with the presence of microcalcifications. Etiology of breast enlargement in male HIV population and differential diagnosis between true gynecomastia and lipomastia are also discussed.
