Results: The entire burden of lost years of life due to breast cancer in 2013 was 1645 years. YLL in 2013, was equaled to1385 years while the share of YLD was calculated as 260 years. DALY rate per hundred thousand female populations was 1.1 years. Breast cancer incidence and death rate per hundred thousand women in 2013 were 14.2 and 4.7, respectively, that the peak age of breast cancer has been accessed in the age group of 45-59.
