A communal disease of the breast is breast cancer which happens mainly in women. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in both the developed and less developed world. The potential biological aggressiveness and behavior of breast neoplasm are of prognostic significance in tumor pathology and this can be assessed by measuring the tumor proliferative activity and malignant transformation. One of such markers is AgNOR (Argyrophilic Nuclear Organizer Region). A search of database sites such as PUBMED, Google Scholar, and Web of Science, as well as, other sources of literature available across public libraries was conducted to obtain information related to the topic. This review has presented a critical discussion on histologically assessing the proliferative activity of various grades and types of breast carcinoma using AgNOR expression and its prognostic significance. This exposé is anticipated to enlighten research scientists on specific management and assessing targets of tumors, which may merit prospective research into developing an appropriate mechanism for assessing the proliferative activity of breast cancer to help solve medical issues relating to cancers.
