Abstract:Background: Globally, the incidence and death rate from of breast cancer (BC) are rising quickly; by 2040, there may be one million deaths and over 3 million new cases of BC. Various studies assessed the usefulness of DNA integrity index (DII) as marker for diagnosis and prognosis in variety of solid tumors.
Aim of the work:We aimed to evaluate DII's clinical usefulness as a molecular marker for BC detection, prognosis prediction and assessment of tumor burden in Egyptian BC female patients.
