Introduction: Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) plays a role in tumor escape and progression by inactivating T lymphocytes. The aim of the study reported here was to determine the relationship between the expression of PD-L1 and histopathological grade, stage of disease, and the occurrence of metastasis in breast cancer.

Methods: The observational cross-sectional study involved analyzing the expression of PD-L1 by immunohistochemistry.
