Chemotherapy should be recommended. The benefit and potential hazard should be fully discussed with the patient, based on her high Ki67, LVI, relatively young age. Besides, information related to tumor grade and menopausal status should be provided for detailed discussion.

Ki67 of final path report should be considered. Oncotype score could also be reliable in males. However I think the most necessary issue should be to check BRCA and other germline mutations in this guy. Eventually I want to start him tamoxifen for 5 years with close follow-up

oncotype in male breast cancer is rarely used, but it serves to avoid over-treating patients, experience is limited, but would only indicate hormonal therapy based on the oncotype score

Male Breast Cancer is highly sensitive to Hormonal therapy. So it is generally the preferred first option of treatment.
In addition to endocrine therapy, a case can be made to adding chemotherapy to high risk patients(such as those with Lymph node metastases.
Since this patient has node negative disease, I would not recommend any chemotherapy. Instead use endocrine therapy such as Tamoxifen for a duration of 5 years.
