Abstract
An effort has been made to find correlation between breast cancer and the dermal ridge pattern of palm. The dermatoglyphic study was carried out on 50 patients of breast cancer and 50 normal persons as controls. The study was conducted in breast cancer patient attending indoor of surgery Department J.M.C Hospital, Jhalawar. Angle between lines draws from first and fourth interdigital triradii to Axial triradius is called ‘atd’ angle. It means angle between index finger triradius (a) and little finger triradius (d) to the axial triradius (t). More distal axial triradii is used if more than one axial triradii is present. They however do not change significantly thereafter, thus maintaining stability not greatly affected by age. The fingerprints could thus be used for screening or to guide future research in this direction and one day the screening of breast cancers could well be at our fingertips. The result showed a significant correlation between angle pattern and breast cancer. It is therefore concluded that if the angle pattern is known, the breast cancer can be predicted.
