“…The reason of increased risk in left breast is unclear (Weiss et al, 1996) but few studies have shown a possible correlation with relatively larger left breast size (Ing et al, 1997), unilateral lactation (Ing et al, 1997), detection biased due to predominant right handedness (Perkins et al, 2004) or more denser left breast (American Cancer Society, 2011-12). This study also revealed that women having right breast cancer were younger than those having left sided disease and this concurs with various published studies showing left sided laterality is more pronounced at higher ages (Busk, 1947;Garfinkel et al, 1959;Senie et al, 1980). Interestingly in this study, patients with right sided disease had smaller primary tumor size and were more prone to have triple negative as well as isolated ER, PR and Her2-Neu negativity.…”
