Breast malignancies being one of the most common and relatively curable malignancies got hit a lot due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The multistep impact of pandemic delayed the diagnosis as also the treatment of this multidisciplinary approach disease. Objective: To determine the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on the diagnosis of breast lesions. Methods: This is a descriptive type of histopathological study in which we have collected and studied the data of Breast lesions over the Five years (Jan 2015-Dec 2019) and compared it with the data of Breast lesions in the Covid-19 year (the year 2020). Results: The number of cases of breast specimens received for histopathology per year declined from an average of 224/year to 124/year in the Covid-19 year of 2020. Conclusion: The decrease in the number of cases alludes to the downfall in the number of patients coming for diagnosis and in turn getting treatment. This study also highlights the importance of anticipation of various cases which will cluster shortly.&#13;
