| Abstract: | Introduction: Breast cancer is the commonest incident tumour in the Maltese islands. The disease is heterogeneous and exhibits diverse clinical prognosis and survival rates. Proper patient classification helps stratify breast cancer groups to ascertain likely prognostic ontcome and select treatment. Breast cancer survival has commonly been described in terms of disease- free survival and five-year overall survival. The aim of this study is to determine disease-free survival together with site of metastasis while stratifying clinical outcomes with known prognostic markers and novel genetic markers. |
