Assessment of Breast Cancer Risk by Gail Model in Women of Thi-Qar

The aim of current study to assess the high incidence of breast cancer (BC) and the effect of its earlydiagnosison decreasing morbidity and mortality among Iraqi women. A descriptive cross-sectional study wasconducted and data were collected from 106 women in Thi-Qar by a questionnaire consisted of demographicand breast cancer risk (BCR) factors questions. Brest cancer risk was calculated using the BCR AssessmentTool (BCRAT) of the National Cancer Institute’s online version (Gail Model).Results: The average age ofwomen was 43.44± 11.3 years. Ten (9.4%) women have first degree relatives who had BC and five of themhave more than one. Fifty (45.3%) had their menarche at 12–13 years of age,32 (29.2%) had their first birthat 20-24 year of age. The mean five year BCR for all women was 1.25± 1.46%, and 15 (14.15%) of them hada five year BCR >1.7%. Mean lifetime BCR up to age 90 years was 13.11± 12.76% and 8(7.54%) womenhad high risk. Based on these findings, it may be suggested that Gail Model for BCR assessment can helphealthcare providers in Iraq to estimate an individual’s probability of developing BC for early detection andprevention.
