ABSTRACT:

Objective: The aim of this research work is to examine the association of the digital dermatoglyphic designs or patterns of the hands of the females with the complication of the breast cancer and females with high danger to develop the breast cancer. Methodology: We studied the fingerprints of six hundred and sixteen females divided in 3 groups; one hundred and fifty-four patients suffering from breast cancer, one hundred and fifty-four females present with high risk to develop the breast cancer and three hundred and eight females in the healthy control group to compare the patterns with the females with disease or risk of acquiring the complication. Results: We identified the pattern of six or high digital whorls more commonly in females suffering from breast cancer (48.70%) in comparison with the group of controls (27.50%). This was also more common in the females with high risks of the acquiring the breast cancer (47.40%) in comparison with the group of controls (27.50%). We found no disparities in females with high danger to acquire the breast cancer (47.40%) in comparison with the females resent with the complication of the breast cancer (48.70%). Conclusion: The role of the digital dermatoglyphic is very important in the identification of the females suffering from breast cancer or present with high risk to acquire the breast cancer which can provide the awareness to start the early treatment to prevent the risk of the disease. KEYWORDS: Breast Cancer, Dermatoglyphic, Complication, Disorder, Association, Suffering, Controls, Pattern, Whorls.
