The breast cancer is the most common non-skin malignancy in women. Prognostic factors are important
in predicting disease. Malignant tumors are composed of a small population of distinct cancer cells,
termed cancer stem cells (CSCs) possess characteristics of both stem cells and cancer cells, in that they
have the properties of self-renewal, asymmetric cell division, resistance to apoptosis, independent
growth, tumourigenicity and metastatic potential. Objective of this studythat detect cancer stem cell of
breast cancer patients by using CD44 and study the compares between patients with breast cancer and
patients with benign breast lesions. This study which included 31 patients with breast cancer and 19
patients with benign breast lesions Prognostic factors were registered including: age, histopathological
subtype, degree of differentiation. Results of this was Positive expression ofCD44 was observed in 16
cases, while 15cases were negative expression of CD44 out of 31samplesof breast cancer. In
Benign1cases were positive expression, while 18 cases were negative expression. CD44 expression
showed high significant difference between malignant breast samples and benign samples (P <0.001)
