Introduction. Male breast cancer is rare and frequently diagnosed at later stages of disease with low survival rates. There is a lack of
knowledge of how breast cancer impacts men’s occupations. Objectives. This study is aimed at understanding the lived experiences
of men with breast cancer and their changes in occupation. Methodology. Twenty-four men with breast cancer participated in
semistructured phone interviews. Data was open-coded and analyzed for themes. Findings. The six major themes are as
follows: (1) death as a reality, (2) unique personal insights, (3) social environment, (4) interactions with the healthcare system,
(5) decreased engagement in occupations, and (6) finding meaning in new occupations. Conclusion. The healthcare team can
improve the patient experience by discussing and responding to the client’s experience throughout the diagnosis, intervention,
and survival continuum. The scope of occupational therapy is well suited to address the needs of men with breast cancer to
maintain optimal levels of functioning.
