Abstract
This article aims to evaluate the epidemiological aspects, diagnosis and treatment of patients with malignant breast neoplasia. This is an integrative review using the BVS, SciELO, LILACS and PubMed as databases over the last 5 years. 272 articles on the topic were evaluated with an emphasis on a synthesis of the most recent knowledge and greater scientific consistency. Breast cancer must be approached by a multidisciplinary team aiming at comprehensive treatment of the patient. It is concluded that this neoplasm stands out as one of the most serious public health problems in Brazil. Early diagnosis of breast cancer, aiming to evaluate the best treatment possibilities for these young patients, can have fewer impacts on their personal and social lives.
