fiber glandular vs fibroglandular
Subject: fiber glandular vs fibroglandular
Pt. has thickening in breast that feels like fiber glandular tissue.
I have heard fibroglandular before but not fiber glandular, which is clearly what he is saying. Has anyone heard this and are the two the same?? TIA
never heard of fiber glandular
Subject: never heard of fiber glandular
Since it's used as the adjective to describe tissue, I think it would be fibroglandular. Any one else?

Could it be so simple as men's glandular stage 2 cancer.

Glandular tissue is also found in breast tissue and males also do get cancer there, most think about down below when referring to males.
How is male breast cancer staged? The term "stage" is used to describe the anatomic extent of disease according to standardized rules. The same staging system is used for both male and female breast cancer patients. This standardized language allows clinicians and researchers to accurately describe the extent of disease. The AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer) staging system uses three numbers to determine the stage of the disease. T (stands for tumor) describes tumors of increasing size and local tissue destruction. N (stands for nodes) describes whether or not the tumor has metastasized to regional lymph nodes and if so, how extensive those nodal metastases are. M (stands for metastases) describes the presence or absence of systemic metastases. The AJCC staging system for breast cancer allows precise stratification of cases and is too complex to fully describe here (24).In most series, men present with more advanced disease (higher stages) women. It is not known whether this reflects delay in diagnosis, more rapid progression in disease, different breast anatomy resulting in most lesions being subareolar (with easy access to subareolar lymphatic trunks) or other factors.
