女性乳腺癌是世界范围内的一个重大公共卫生问题。它是发达国家和发展中国家妇女中最常见的癌症。全世界每年诊断出的所有新癌症中，十分之一是女性乳腺癌。它也是全球妇女死于癌症的主要原因。全世界有超过110万例确诊病例，超过410，000例患者死于该病（Ferlay et al. 2004）。它是第二个最常见的癌症，仅次于肺癌，按癌症发生率在两性中排名。目前，发达国家约占全球负担的55%，但发展中国家的发病率正在迅速上升。我们回顾了乳腺癌的全球负担，重点关注世界不同地区的发病率和死亡率及其地理和时间变化方面的疾病模式。我们还简要讨论了来源和估计方法，有效性和完整性的现有数据，以及可能的解释所观察到的发病率和死亡率的模式。
Breast cancer in women is a major public health problem throughout the world. It is the most common cancer among women both in developed and developing countries. One in ten of all new cancers diagnosed worldwide each year is a cancer of the female breast. It is also the principal cause of death from cancer among women globally. More than 1.1 million cases are diagnosed and more than 410,000 patients die of it worldwide (Ferlay et al. 2004). It is the second most common cancer now, after lung cancer, when ranked by cancer occurrence in both sexes. About 55% of the global burden is currently experienced in developed countries, but incidence rates are rapidly rising in developing countries. We review the global burden of breast cancer, focusing on patterns of disease in terms of incidence and mortality and their geographical and temporal variations in different regions of the world. We also discuss briefly the sources and methods of estimation, validity and completeness of available data, and possible explanations for the observed patterns of incidence and mortality.
