Published 2021-07-30

Abstract

Breast Cancer Represents The Most Frequently Diagnosed Cancer And Leading Cause Of Cancer Deaths In Females Worldwide. Highest Rates Of Breast Cancer Occur In North America, Western Europe And Australia; Nevertheless, The Incidence Is Increasing In All Parts Of The Globe, Especially In The Developing Countries. The Preponderance Of Breast Cancer Is Sporadic And The Risk Factors Are Predominantly Linked To Estrogen Exposure And Age. Steroid Hormones, Particularly Estrogens, Contribute To The Development And Progression Of Mammary Gland Neoplasia [2]. Breast Cancer Is A Disease With A Multifaceted Etiology And Is The Most Common Invasive Malignancy Among Women Worldwide. The Rates Of Incidence Of Breast Cancer Are Approximately 90–130 Per 10,000 Women In Developed Countries And 10–60 Per 10,000 Women In Developing Countries. Exposure To Environmental Xenobiotics During Critical Phases Of Early Development Has Been Found To Play A Vital Role In Breast Cancer Susceptibility During The Latter Periods Of Life [3]. Genetics Factors, Including Mutations In Brca 1 And Brca 2 Contribute To ~10% Of Breast Cancer Incidence In The Western World [4].
