Gynecomastia is a benign unilateral or bilateral increase in glandular tissue in men with significant aesthetic and psychological repercussions. In some situations, it might be a symptom of an underlying condition. The management of gynecomastia is mainly based on an extensive etiological analysis made of an exhaustive endocrine assessment, and a radical or conservative adapted treatment allowing to obtain the best aesthetic result.

Through literature review some clinical cases, we establish different etiological, clinical aspects and management of gynecomastia.
