There are several reasons, 1) Westernized food patterns; high fat and high calorie diet, 2) lower birth rate, 3) shorter period of breast feeding, 4) longer exposure to estrogen; early menarche, hormone replacement therapy, 5) envimnental stress, etc. In 2002 year about one million cases of new breast cancer were estimated all over the world, but in Korea 7,800 cases were newley registered, among them in situ carcinoma was 6.1%.
