Introduction: breast cancer in Cuba constitutes the second disease of this type with the highest incidence and mortality, affecting the quality of life of those who suffer it.
Objective: to evaluate the quality of life of women with clinical and anatomopathological diagnosis of breast cancer in Pinar del Río municipality in 2017, five years after diagnosis and treatment.
Methods: transversal and analytical research carried out on women from Pinar del Río municipality diagnosed with breast cancer, years 2011 and 2012, stages 0 to II, attended at the Provincial Center of attention to the oncologic patient, III Congress of Pinar del Río. The universe was formed by 135 and the sample by 78, selected through a non-probabilistic intentional sampling. To obtain the information, the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire (Version 3) of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life was applied.
Results: women predominantly evaluated their cognitive function (87,18 %), activities of daily living (79,49 %) and physical function (62,82 %) as good; a statistically significant association of these variables with the stage at diagnosis was demonstrated. None evaluated their quality of life related to symptoms well.
Conclusions: diagnosis in advanced stages of the disease reduces the quality of life of women. Multiple studies show that genetic factors, the neuroendocrine, immune and nervous systems, as well as emotions, personality and behavior are involved in responses to bacteria and virus infections in breast cancer patients.
