reast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer among Saudi women, with an overall estimate of 26.6 cases per 100,000
in 2007, as reported by the WHO from 2012 to 2016. The study aimed to assess Breast Cancer occurrence among female
patients inKingAbdul AzizHospital -Al Ahsa eastern region. A retrospective cross-sectional descriptive designwas utilized.The
average age at the diagnosis was 51.9 ± 14.4, and ranged 40-60. BMI average was 31.1 ± 07.6. The most common comorbidities
were diabetes, hypertension and heart disease (49.1%; 48.2% and 18.9%) respectively. Most BC cases were diagnosed with
infiltrating ductal carcinoma (79.3%), Half of the cases had tumor size of 2-5cm (T2) and 39.4% with grade III. In 2007, most
of the cases (80%) were positive (HER2) but it decreased to 27.3% in 2014. The common manifestation among cases was a
mass in the breast (lump), pain and lymph node involvement. The first line of treatment that is used for those patients included
mastectomy (79.6%), chemotherapy (67.9%), radiation (34.0%) and hormonal (15%). In conclusion, BC is still diagnosed in
women younger than 50 years old than other developing country. Most of them had infiltrating ductal carcinoma and more
than one third of cases has grade III. The most common comorbidities associated with BC were diabetes, hypertension and
heart disease. BC awareness campaigns and resources are needed to early detect and screen BC cases to decrease the mortality
