Many social and lifestyle changes have occurred in the decades following World War II, a period during which the breast cancer rates increased dramatically. In addition, and strikingly, the increasing incidence of breast cancer over these decades paralleled the proliferation of synthetic chemicals. Many of these chemicals with lipophilic nature persist in the environment accumulate in the body. These lipophilic pesticides may increase cancer risk through their persistent accumulation in adipose tissue, slow release into the blood and peripheral tissue, and eventual impact on the endocrine system. In the present study qualitative and quantitative organochlorine pesticide residues where analyzed and increased risk of breast cancer was observed.
