📋 Key Takeaway

A health official highlighted that the majority of breast cancer patients in Iran do not have a family history of the disease. This statistic challenges common perceptions about breast cancer risk factors. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for public health strategies.

The research deputy of the National Cancer Institute of the Jihad University emphasized that having no family history does not mean immunity from breast cancer. Only 15 to 20 percent of cases have a familial and hereditary origin, while about 80 percent of patients have no family history of this disease.
