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, cross-sectional study was carried out in the period from September 2018 to June 2019. The universe consisted of 8 patients diagnosed with breast cancer. Descriptive statistics were used for statistical analysis.
Results: the ages between 63 and 67 years (37.5 %) predominate. 100 % of the sample knew the breast self-examination technique, but only 87.5% practiced it correctly. Dyslipidemias predominated in 4 patients (50 %) and with a family pathological history, mother with a diagnosis of breast cancer (37.5 %).
Conclusions: In women diagnosed with breast cancer, the risk factor with the highest incidence was obesity. The mother was the first rung on the list of relatives with a history of breast cancer. Knowledge about self-examination was high; however, this did not mean that their practice was correct.
