ABSTRACT
Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignant neoplasia in women and is responsible for one in six deaths from cancer in the female population. Five years after diagnosis, BC survival rates currently exceed 80%. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in BC, mainly in patients receiving cardiotoxic drugs (anthracyclines, immunotherapy) and radiotherapy (RT). CVD and BC have common risk factors (RF), which are related to aging, traditional and cardiometabolic RFs (obesity, dyslipidemia, consumption of alcoholic beverages), and others associated with sex and reproductive women's age, such as early menarche, late menopause, nulliparity, use of oral contraceptives, as well as hormone replacement therapy in postmenopause. Risk stratification and the promotion of an ideal state of cardiovascular (CV) health are fundamental in preventing CVD in survivors. Therapeutic management and follow-up of patients with BC require a multidisciplinary team to reduce complications and mortality of CV origin.
