Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer worldwide and in King Saudi Arabia as well. This study aimed to determine the demographic characteristics and histopathological profile of females with breast cancer attending King Fahad hospital at Albaha-KSA. Design and Setting: Retrospective descriptive study conducted in King Fahad Hospital at Albaha in the period between Jan 2014 through Dec 2018. Materials and Methods: We obtained data concerning the demographic and histopathological profile of 48 female patients with breast cancer during the study period. Results: 48 patients ranging in age from 28-86 years (mean 52 years) were included in the study with the peak incidence age in the 5th decade. In 54.2% of cases, the tumor was left-sided. Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) was the most common type (37 cases; 77.1%) and mucinous is the least one (1 case; 2.1%). Approximately two-thirds of cases were grade 1 and 2 (33 cases; 68.8%). Six (12.5%) cases had tumor size ≤ 2 cm, 20 cases (41.7%) had tumor size of 2-5 cm, while 4 cases (8.3%) had tumor size more than 5 cm. In 31.2% of cases nodal metastases were negative, (31.2%) showed nodal metastases while in (37.5%) of cases lymph node metastases were not assessed. Conclusion: Our study showed that the peak incidence age of breast cancer was the 5th decade of life while Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) was the most common histological type.
