ABSTRACT
Introduction: breast cancer constitutes almost a quarter of the most frequent malignant tumors among women and has become one of the main causes of death in the world.Objective: to characterize the behavior of breast cancer in clinic No. 1 of the “Juan Gualberto Gómez” Polyclinic, Los Arabos municipality. Method: an observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out from September 2018 to June 2019. The universe consisted of 8 patients diagnosed with breast cancer. A descriptive statistical analysis was used.
Results: ages between 63 and 67 (37,5 %) predominated. A 100 % of the sample knew the breast self-examination technique, but only 87,5 % practiced it correctly. Dyslipidemias predominated (50 %) as well as individuals whose mothers were diagnosed of breast cancer (37,5 %).
Conclusions: in females diagnosed with breast cancer, the risk factor with the highest incidence was obesity. Mother were the first on the familiar list with history of breast cancer. Knowledge about self-examination was high; however, this did not mean that their practice was correct.
