ABSTRACT
Introduction: breast cancer represents a public health problem. It is the most common malignant neoplasm in women and can also manifest itself in males, to a lesser extent though. Updating on issues related to this disease is necessary to achieve its prevention. Objective: to characterize the level of knowledge about breast cancer in a group of patients belonging to the Family Doctor's Office 20 in Morón, Ciego de Ávila. Method: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out from September to October 2020. The entire universe was studied, which consisted of 81 patients. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: the female sex represented 60,5 % of the cases. Adults over 50 years old accounted for 43,2 %. The absence of breastfeeding and smoking was present in 33,3 % and 25,9 % of the patients. Regarding the level of knowledge, 70,4% was inadequate. Conclusions: it was possible to identify a low level of knowledge in the surveyed people on issues related to breast cancer.REFERENCES
