    Introduction: Breast cancer represents one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among women worldwide. The training of rotating medical interns is crucial for developing clinical competencies. Objective: The objective of this study is to propose a pedagogical and didactic strategy to improve the understanding and clinical management of breast cancer among rotating medical interns in the Internal Medicine Service at the Ambato Teaching Hospital. This strategy aims to promote active learning and critical reflection through the presentation and discussion of clinical cases in the Internal Medicine Service at the Ambato Teaching Hospital. Methodology: An explanatory, experimental, and prospective study design with deliberate intervention was carried out. This included the selection of representative breast cancer cases. Presentation sessions were conducted, during which interns presented the background, diagnosis, and treatment of the cases. Subsequently, a space for group discussion was facilitated, guided by a specialized faculty member. Results: The results showed a significant increase in the interns' understanding of the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of breast cancer. Surveys indicated that 85% of the interns considered that the methodology used enhanced their learning and enabled them to address patient care more effectively. Conclusions: The design of a pedagogical and didactic strategy focused on the presentation and discussion of breast cancer clinical cases is effective in enhancing the training of medical interns. This methodology not only improves their understanding of the disease but also strengthens their clinical competencies.
