ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The management of breast cancer has changed dramatically in the molecular era. Micro-RNAs can contribute to multiple facets of cancer surgery.METHODS:
This narrative review, based on years of research on the role of micro-RNAs, focused on the potential of these small, robust RNAs to influence all aspects of breast cancer surgery.RESULTS:
Micro-RNAs have a potential role as biomarkers in the diagnosis, prognosis and evaluation of response to therapy in breast cancer. They may also contribute to future therapeutic strategies.CONCLUSION:
The molecular era has changed understanding of cancer. Micro-RNAs have the potential for use in personalized cancer strategies.
