Breast cancer is one of the major health burdens in Indonesia. The burdens are different exposures to risk factors, economic settings, lifestyles, access to care and screening,5 delay in seeking help and non-adherence 6, financial toxicity,7,8, and Social Insurance Administration Organization reported that from 1,308,061 inpatient cancer cases treated in 2016, a total of 2. trillion rupiahs was spent, amounting to $486,960,633 in the US dollars . urchasing power J Med Health. :123-30 Journal of Medicine and Health Vol. 4 No. 2 August 2022 The Association between The A e-ISSN: 2442-5257 Research Article parity 2. 9 There are many breast cancer risk factors profiles studies,10,11 pathologic profile of young age group12, old age group. 13 This research is still important because the young age group patients increase with aggressive characteristics, in an older age group patients increase with a worse prognostic outcome, and the majority of breast cancer patients in Indonesia are diagnosed at a high stage,12,14 and in Jogjakarta, almost half have delay presentation, and 64. experience delay in diagnosis. 15 The study aimed to assess the different clinicopathologic between the young age group and older age group, and this study could provide additional data for later epidemiological, clinical, biomedical studies and to make policies for breast cancer Methods A cross-sectional study used secondary data from the Medical Records (MR) at Bethesda Hospital Yogyakarta, which included all women diagnosed with breast cancer from 1st January 2017 Ae to 31st December 2020.

In Korea, the peaking incidence rate in the 45- 49year age group,3 Japan 50-54year age group,4 the United States 55-59 age group,4 Australia 65-69 age group,20 and in the world 49% 50-69 years age 21 The menopausal and postmenopausal are prevalent breast cancer patients in some regions but the other premenopausal patients are prevalent. Demographic differences with fewer old women in some regions and lower prevalence of risk factors of postmenopausal cancer are the most likely explanation for the lower mean age at diagnosis in those regions. In this study, the left lateralization of the right and left breast cancer was almost the In the study in St. Rita Medical Centre Ohio United States . , most patients had unilateral breast cancer in, the upper outer quadrant, and left breast side. 23 In the study at Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University China . , the left side of breast cancer was the dominant breast side in theOu 40 year age group and the right side of breast cancer in the < 40 year age group. 24 Predominance lateralization on the left breast side could be explained by breast asymmetry in women, as measured on mammography, the left breast was noted to be larger than the right in 55% of healthy women. Breast hypertrophy was reported to be more common on the left side. In this study, stage i was the most of breast cancer stage. In a study conducted at RSUP Sanglah Bali . , most patientsAo stage presentation was stage i . ,06%),17,18 and stage IV . 6%) in RSUP Dr. RD. Kandau Manado. 19 The factors of delay in seeking treatment are caused by lacking breast cancer knowledge, the major cause, cost of treatment, culture and spiritual belief, and seeking complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). 17 In the study conducted at RSUP Prof. Dr. Kandau Manado . and RSUP Sanglah Bali, the most histopathology type is invasive ductal carcinoma . % and 84. 7%). 18,19 Invasive Ductal J Med Health. :123-30 Journal of Medicine and Health Vol. 4 No. 2 August 2022 The Association between The A e-ISSN: 2442-5257 Research Article Carcinoma No Specific Type (IDC NST) constitute 40-75% and invasive lobular carcinoma accounts for 10-15% of all breast cancers. The clinicopathologic presentations of IDC NST usually show a wide scope of morphological variation and clinical behaviors, such as tumor size, grade, the relative proportion of tumor cell and stroma, and types of margins. IDC NST shows heterogeneous growth, including diffuse sheets, nests, cords, or singly distributed cells with a variable amount of ductal differentiation. A molecular subtype of breast cancer is a determinant factor for overall survival (OS), favourable molecular subtypes (Luminal A and Luminal B) can expect an OS above 95% and a local recurrent rate of almost 100% above 5 years. On the other hand, the outcome of patients with HER-2/neu and TNBC subtype remains poor. 26 In this study hormonal receptor subtypes are predominant. In the study conducted in RSUP Sanglah Bali . Luminal A and TNBC were the most molecular subtype,27 in RSUP Dr. Djamil Padang . Luminal B and TNBC were the most molecular subtype,28 In RSUD Madiun . Luminal B is the most molecular subtype than TNBC. Luminal A, and HER-2/neu. 29 Systematic Review study by Simbolon and Pohan . , molecular the subtype most molecular subtype was Luminal A . 5%).

Luminal A subtype presents low histopathologic grade, special histologic type . ubular, mucinous, and lobula. , low proliferation index, and low recurrent rate than other subtypes. Conclusion Our study concluded that the 51-60 years age group was the most prevalent age group of breast cancer, and incidence declined after 60. Laterality of left breast side of breast cancer found almost the same with right breast side. Most patients presented a high stage of invasive ductal carcinoma. Hormone receptor-positive was the predominant subtype of breast cancer. Hormone receptor-positive subtypes were characteristic of patients O 50 years old, 2. 993 more prevalent than > 50 years, while hormone receptor-negative subtypes were characteristic of patients > 50 years old.
