Definition
An alternative or archaic term for gynaecomastia; the abnormal development of breast tissue in males.
Etymology
A variant form of 'gynaecomastia,' using an alternative suffix construction from Greek 'gyne' (woman) and 'mastos' (breast).
Kelly Says
Medical terminology evolved over time, and you'll find older texts using 'gynaecomasty' instead of 'gynaecomastia'—language in science changes as doctors agree on standard terms, much like how we settled on specific names for diseases.
