Abstract Background The help-seeking interval and primary-care are points of delays in breast cancer presentation. To inform future intervention targeting early diagnosis cancer, we described the contribution each to delay impact on tumor progression. Method We conducted a multicentered survey from June 2017 May 2018 hypothesizing that most patients visited first healthcare provider within 60 days detection.
