Subjects & Methods: The study was done in Department of General Surgery for a period of six months from September 2019 to February 2020 in a tertiary care hospital among 45 women with invasive breast carcinoma was recorded. In all patients, side and location of tumour and histological types, tumour size, histological grade, skin, nipple and areola invasion was recorded. Results: Group I had 6, II had 8, III had 4, IV had 5, V had 2, VI had 6, VII had 7, VIII had 3 and IX had 4 patients. Location was upper outer quadrant (22), upper inner quadrant (5), lower outer quadrant (4), lower inner quadrant (3), center quadrant (9) and multifocal tumour (2). The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: The size of the primary tumour and the number of positive lymph nodes has an inverse linear relationship with prognosis.
