Klinefelter syndrome presenting as metastatic bilateral breast cancer: missed diagnostic opportunities.

Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is the most common cause of primary hypogonadism in male patients; however, the diagnosis of KS is frequently delayed or missed. This delay can lead to undesirable outcomes for patients, especially considering that individuals with KS have a higher risk of developing specific malignancies, including breast cancer, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and mediastinal germ cell tumours. We present a case of a male patient in his 60s, where the established diagnosis of metastatic bilateral breast cancer prompted us to investigate and subsequently confirm a diagnosis of KS.
