Results: Total 150 females with breast cancer were selected and MRM was performed in all patients. After 6 months of MRM, recurrence of breast cancer was noted in 43 (29%) patients.

Difference of recurrence of breast cancer between primiparas and multiparas was statistically insignificant with p value 1.000. Conclusion: In present study patients of breast cancer were managed with modified radical mastectomy. After 6 months follow-up, higher number of patients reported with recurrence of breast cancer.
