ABSTRACT
This study has been completed on 23 patients with breast carcinoma. Their age ranged from 33 to 70 years with mean age of 48.6 years. The number of affected nodes increases in those patients with level two and three. The impact of the level of the affected nodes on their number was statistically highly significant. The impact of the stage on the number of the affected lymph nodes was statistically significant. The study showed that there was an increase in the number of the affected lymph nodes in the postmenopausal period. Modified radical mastectomy is the required treatment for breast cancer in order to provide enough specimen for the judgment of lymph node status of the patient which determines the further management whether radio or chemotherapy
