ABSTRACT
This study described the profile of breast pathology based on records from a reference histopathology laboratory in Yemen of 773 women with positive biopsy or mastectomy findings. Cancers were classified according to the International classification of diseases for oncology. Benign lesions were found in 79.9% of cases. Fibroadenoma was the most prevalent lesion [30.0%] with a mean age at presentation of 22.2 years, followed by fibrocystic disease [27.4%] and breast inflammation [13.1%]. Invasive carcinoma was found in 155 cases [20.1%], at a mean age of 44.7 years
