Abstract:	Breast cancer is a major public health problem in most countries of the world. While in most EU countries mortality from breast cancer dropped significantly in the last 20 years, we cannot say the same about Romania. According to WHO estimates for Romania, after 2000, mortality due to breast cancer increased by 7%. In terms of Arad County, in the period 1999-2009 average index of breast cancer mortality in women in the nine-year study period is from 35.08 to 100,000 women.
