Breast cancer is the one of the most common types of cancer which affects women's health in many countries. However, it is likely to be diagnosed early by the screening methods and to treat the disease. It is possible for the patients to be diagnosed in early term by screening programs and to be treated. In this study, we aimed to presenting demographic, clinical and histopathological features of 150 patients diagnosed and followed as breast cancer in our Oncology Clinic between the years 2011-2013 by comparing with the recent literature data. The mean age patients were 58 years. 68 of the patients (45.3%) were premenopausal. The number of the patients with a family history of breast cancer was noted as 13 (8.7%). It was determined that the number of the patients with oestrogen receptor positivity was 100 (66.7%), progesterone receptor positivity was 87(58%), C-Erb b2 positivity was 38 (25.3%). With regard to the histopathological types of the patients, it was determined that the most frequent types were invasive ductal carcinoma (81.3%) and invasive lobular carcinoma ( 8.7%). Considering to the diagnosis age of 52 in our study, we wanted to highlight that mammography screening after the age of 45 will provide apportunities to identify at an early stage.
