|
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the trends in Korean breast cancer patients based on large scale survival rate data from a single institution.
Materials and Methods: We analyzed anonymized data of breast cancer patient at our institution from 2000 to 2018. A total of 8,601 patients were included for survival analysis.
Results: The number of breast cancer patients steadily increased. In particular, the proportion of early breast cancer gradually increased, accounting for more than half of all patients. The 5-year overall survival rate was 91.7%, and the median follow-up duration was 82.1 months. The survival rate differed according to the stage, however the overall survival rate of patients diagnosed later in the observation was better.
Conclusion: This study summarized the large scale data of breast cancer patient from a single institution, and it is expected to be helpful in examining the trends in the survival rate of Korean breast cancer patients.
