Abstract

 Introduction: Traditional models of breast cancer development are based on morphological studies and suggest the transition from a normal epithelial cell via hyperplasia and atypical hyperplasia to ductal carcinoma in situ. The risk for carcinoma increased with the rate of proliferation and atypia in breast biopsies. Methodology: In this study, collection of family history and interrogation with the patient forms an integral part. This was done by direct communication with the patient at the Pathology and Surgery departments, collection of details from the radiotherapy department records and by collecting filled up proforma from the patients by post. Results: It is clearly seen that nearly 78% of the tumours belonged to the higher grade –Grade 2 and 3, whereas low-grade tumours constituted only 22%.Conclusion: The lymph node positivity is a strong indication to make the public aware of this disease and to intensify the screening and surveillance programmes

Keywords: Breast Carcinoma; Clinical Profile; Pathological Profile.
