Objective: To determine the most common molecular type of breast cancer in the Hospital Metropolitano. Methodology: This was a retrospective descriptive study, in which the histopathological reports of all breast cancer cases diagnosed from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2019 were reviewed, taking into account immunohistochemical data for classification. In the period studied, a total of 276 cases corresponding to breast cancer were evidenced, after classifying individual criterias, data from 147 patients were analyzed. Results: The annual average of new cases was 40 ± 6. The average age at diagnosis was 60.9 ± 13 years. A large number of patients are in the age range of 40 to 69 years with 101 cases (69%). More than a half were Luminal B type with a total of 85 cases which corresponds to 54%, the minority were triple negative type with 11 cases (7%). The predominant number of cases (71%) have high tumor profiling determined by Ki-67. Conclusions: In this retrospective study we found that the most common molecular subtype of breast cancer is Luminal B, and the least frequent is triple negative. The results also demonstrate that most of the cases have high proliferation determined the value of Ki-67.
