Aim was to evaluate sociodemographic, reproductive factors, presentation pattern and surgical complications among breast cancer patients in North India.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n This prospective observational study included 101-biopsy-proven breast cancer patients undergoing axillary dissection at a tertiary center from January 2021 to December 2022. Demographic profile, reproductive history, tumor characteristics, and post-operative complications were recorded.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n Mean age was 47.93 years with 97.03% females. Upper outer quadrant was most common site (56.67%) with 82% axillary lymph node positivity. ER\/PR positive cases were 59%, HER2 positive 29%, TNBC 28%. Lymphedema occurred in 9.4%, seroma in 15.6%, and wound infection in 9%. Late presentation beyond 6 months was seen in 56.57%.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n Breast cancer in North India affects women at younger age with advanced stage presentation. Awareness, early diagnosis and improving access to care are needed to reduce disease burden.<\/jats:p>\n
