Abstract

Objective: Evaluate breast cancer patients' profiles who were undergone oncologic surgery at Santa Casa de Franca hospital complex from January/2015 to February/2018. Results: 170 women with breast cancer underwent oncologic surgery within the period studied. The average age was 59,9 years; and most of patients underwent surgery between 61 and 70 years (36,1%). Regarding to parity and race, 53,3% multigested and 78,1% white. The modified radical mastectomy was performed in 55,6% of the cases and conservative surgery in 44,4%. The predominant histological type was the ductal (90% of the cases). When comparing the clinical staging of the patients to pathological evaluation of tumor size (T) and lymph node extension (N), the average difference showed an underestimation of the physical examination with the histological one. Conclusion: The analysis performed in this study proved similarity with the data described in the literature in relation to the population characteristics among breast cancer patients, except for the disagreement concerning multiparity, regarded as a protective factor. In addition, greater mastectomies were observed in patients under 50 years of age.
