(74.2%vs.36.1%, p= 0.04) among those patients who were non-metastatic at the time of referral, the time left to metastasis had a significant effect on the overall survival from metastasis manifestation. in comparison with premenopausal patients, the overall survival was relatively better in postmenopausal cases. (59.4% vs. 38.5%, p=0.1) conclusion: in our study, disease free survival (dfs) was the most important factor for overall survival in patients with metastatic breast cancer. the patients with longer dfs (>18month) had better overall survival. overall the patients with bone metastasis had better survival than visceral metastasis.
