Zusammenfassung
Die Hôufigkeit von Brustkrebs hat in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten weltweit zugenommen. In vielen Industrielôndern ist dieser Tumor bereits die hôufigste Krebserkrankung bzw. Krebstodesursache bei Frauen. Die höchsten Inzidenzraten werden in Europa und Nordamerika beobachtet (Coleman et al. 1993). Lônder mit hoher Inzidenz weisen übereinstimmend eine hohe soziale und ökonomische Entwicklung auf sowie eine geringe Fertilitôt und eine lange Lebenserwartung. In Populationen mit entsprechenden Entwicklungstendenzen nimmt das Erkrankungsrisiko zu.
