    Abstract:
    Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among women in the United States. For 1990, the National Cancer Institute's (NCI) Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER) reported that the incidence of breast cancer was approximately 109 per 100,000 women. The annual incidence of breast cancer among women increased approximately 52% during 1950-1990, while the death rate increased 4% during the same period. This report summarizes epidemiologic information about deaths from breast cancer in 1991 and describes mortality trends during 1980-1991.
