The pink ribbon is an internationally recognized symbol of breast cancer awareness. However, it has been argued that the colour pink may reinforce the misconception that breast cancer only affects women, potentially leading to delays in the diagnosis of male breast cancer, due to ignorance regarding the significance of male breast cancer signs and symptoms. The lifetime risk of developing breast cancer for men in the general population is 0.1%, and <1% of all breast cancer diagnoses occur in men [1]. Including a blue spot or a blue section in the pink ribbon has been advocated, to signify and acknowledge breast cancer also occurs in men.

男性乳腺癌：粉红丝带布鲁斯。

粉红丝带是国际公认的认识乳腺癌的标志。然而，由于对男性乳腺癌的体征和症状的重要性不了解，粉红色可能会加剧误解，即乳腺癌仅影响女性，可能导致男性乳腺癌的诊断延迟。在一般人群中，男性一生中罹患乳腺癌的终生风险为0.1％，在所有乳腺癌诊断中，<1％发生在男性中[1]。有人主张在粉红丝带中包括蓝色斑点或蓝色部分，以表示并确认乳腺癌也发生于男性。
