Popis: Comorbid pathology is important in the survival of patients with breast cancer. The main aim of the present study was to investigate prognostic criteria of the 5-year survival menopausal women with breast cancer, including both the classic criteria (age, tumor size, lymph node status, hormonal status) and the presence of comorbid pathology (arterial hypertension, visceral obesity, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, immunodeficiency). A prospective cohort study included 98 patients with breast cancer (aged 63 ± 9 years, BMI 31.6 ± 4.8 kg/m2). Criteria favorable short-term (5 years) of the cancer prognosis of breast cancer in menopausal women are the size of the tumor less than 5 cm, the absence of metastases in regional lymph nodes, and the absence of the metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia, high activity of suppressor cells. Age, anthropometric indices (BMI, waist circumference etc.), presence of arterial hypertension do not give information about the 5-year survival rate in breast cancer.
