Abstract

Breast cancer is the major health problem for the women throughout the world.Management of breast cancer has evolved to include both surgery for local disease and medical therapy for systemic disease. Multiple treatment options are available depending on various factors such as histological grade, hormone receptor status etc. The aim of this study is to correlate the hormone receptor status with prognostic factors such as lymph node involvement, tumour grading and age among patients diagnosed with breast cancer in our institution. The results of this study serve to prognosticate the severity of disease among various strata of patients.
