Abstract

Introduction: In Latin America and the Caribbean breast cancer, it is the leading cause of death from malignant neoplasms in women, displacing cervical cancer in several countries. In Mexico, it is the second cause of death due to tumor processes in women over 25 years of age and 14,000 new cases are diagnosed each year.

Objective: To determine the risk factors to which women with a family history of breast cancer may be exposed.

Methodology: An integrative review was carried out where articles related to the topics of breast cancer, risk factors and care in women with a family history of breast cancer were searched. For the search, the Google Scholar, PubMed and Scielo databases were used. Search terms were selected based on the research question using the Concept, Population and Context (CPC) strategy.

Results: From the Google Scholar, PubMed and Scielo databases, 42 articles were selected, finding that there is still a lack of knowledge regarding self-care practices, facing this public health problem in developing countries.

Conclusions: Research on the subject has concluded that women with a low level of schooling, who live in rural areas and belong to low socioeconomic strata are more likely to suffer from this pathology.
