Article abstract:
Introduction & Objective: Breast cancer is a fatal disease that causes morbidity and mortality in women worldwide. Assessment tools for the risk of breast cancer are widely used for counseling and determining eligibility for breast cancer. The usefulness of these tools in the case of Iranian women is uncertain. So we decided to use Gail model for predicting absolute risk of invasive breast cancer in women who refer to health centers of Yasuj, Iran. Materials & Methods: In a cross sectional study, we used data from 513 women who were referred for routine woman health programs in Yasuj health centers, during 2010-2011. Age, marriage status, age of marriage, pregnancy and menopausal history and Gail Model results for these people was determined. T-test and Anova were used in the evaluation of the averages and SPSS 15 software was used for the analysis. Results: The mean of age of this group was 41.8+6.1 years. The risk of breast cancer in the next five years (5R) was 0.55% and the risk of breast cancer during the whole life (LTR) was found to be 8.2%. 14 women (2.7%; CI 95%: 1.1-8.5) had high risk of breast cancer, based on Gail Method. Mamography and sonography were normal in these women. Conclusions: Based on Gail model, the risk of breast cancer in these women was determined to be 2.7%. More studies for the rest of the population are necessary for a final judgment.
