%X Objective: To assess the resilience and staging degree relating to sociodemographic factors of breast cancer survivors followed up in an oncology service. Method: Quantitative study with 112 breast cancer survivors. The variables selected were: sociodemographic; clinical staging; survival time; and resilience scale. The analysis was performed using the Epi Info 6.04 software and Fisher's exact test. The research was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Pelotas School of Nursing under Opinion Nº 31/2009. Results: The average age was 46,2 years, there was 60,71% of stage II cases, 81,25% were white, 40,18% had five-to eight-year schooling, 52,68% were married, 73,32% had lived in urban areas, 41,96% exhibited high resilience, and 48,21% were followed up from one to three years. Conclusion: Staging was not associated with the resilience degree, but rather with age and survival time, confirming the findings of other studies.
