In this study, we explored the clinical features of breast cancer patients in Southern Shaanxi Province, China.Patients and Methods: A total of 328 breast cancer patients between 2010 and 2015 were recruited at our hospital. Patients’ clinical information and the results of the histopathological examination were collected. Independent sample t-test and Cox regression were used to analyze the data.Results: The peak age onset of these patients was between 45 and 50. At diagnosis, 8.23% of patients were at clinical stage 1 and 29.57% were triple-negative breast cancer subtype. High expression of Ki-67 in these patients was found associated with triple-negative breast cancer. The 5-year survival rate in these patients was 66.4%, and the survival rate in stage 1 and 2 patients (88.2%) was significantly higher than that in stage 3 and4 (57.4%).Conclusion: We here reported the clinical features of patients with breast cancer in Southern Shaanxi Province, China. The breast cancer patients in Southern Shaanxi Province showed a unique clinical feature.Keywords: 5-year survival rate, breast cancer, clinical features, triple-negative breast cancer |
