description To analyse the early stage breast cancer tumour size distribution as an important prognostic factor among the female patients within our local geographic region of Herzegovina. This cross-sectional retrospective study included 379 patients who were treated in 2017 at the Oncology Clinic, University Clinical Hospital Mostar. The patients were divided into two groups based on their primary tumour size: early (≤2 cm) and late (>2 cm) stage groups. The number of patients tested for advanced stage tumours surpassing 2 cm was statistically higher (χ =106,325; p2 cm but ≤5 cm in greatest dimension (T2). The patients' knowledge about breast cancer, availability and adherence of mammography did not show any statistically significant difference with regard to tumour size, while the number of patients with smaller tumours who indicated that they underwent regular mammography was statistically significantly higher (χ =13,629; p

Our data shows that in our region, more women with a diagnosis of breast cancer presented with a larger tumor size. Although there was no statistically significant difference with regard to prior knowledge about breast cancer and availability to mammography, this may be due to a small sample size. Our region does not have a screening mammogram program and this data suggests that the implementation of such a program may improve adherence to existing mammography guidelines which might capture tumors at a smaller size and hence an earlier stage.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0353-5053</identifier><identifier>PMID: 33212458</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Croatia</publisher><subject>Adult ; Aged ; Aged, 80 and over ; Bosnia and Herzegovina - epidemiology ; Breast Neoplasms - epidemiology ; Breast Neoplasms - pathology ; Cross-Sectional Studies ; Female ; Humans ; Mammography - statistics &amp; numerical data ; Mass Screening ; Middle Aged ; Neoplasm Staging - statistics &amp; numerical data ; Retrospective Studies ; Sample Size</subject><ispartof>Psychiatria Danubina, 2020-11, Vol.32 (Suppl 4), p.520-527</ispartof><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,776,780</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/33212458$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Marijanović, Inga</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Kraljević, Marija</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Jović Zlatović, Josipa</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Buhovac, Teo</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Pavleković, Gordana</creatorcontrib><title>Tumour Size Distribution of Invasive Breast Cancer in a One-Year Period: Case Study Herzegovina</title><title>Psychiatria Danubina</title><addtitle>Psychiatr Danub</addtitle><description>To analyse the early stage breast cancer tumour size distribution as an important prognostic factor among the female patients within our local geographic region of Herzegovina.
