Aim:
This is a description of the largest breast cancer (BC) registry in Iran, termed the Shiraz Breast Cancer Registry (SBCR).
Methods:
Data on baseline and clinical characteristics, socioeconomic status, imaging, physical examination, histopathology, treatment and prognosis have been recorded for each individual.
Results:
Overall, 5937 were included in the report. Mean age of first presentation was 49.05 ± 11.69 years. Mean tumor size was 2.78 ± 1.76 cm. Most patients had stage 2 (46.9%) and 3 (25.5%) BCs, respectively. Most common type of BC was invasive ductal carcinoma (83.3%), followed by medullary carcinoma (3.8%). Overall, 12.9% were triple negative (HER2-, ER- and PR-).
Conclusion:
The study provides an overview on the status of BC's in Iran and a wide opportunity for future studies.
