Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical features,surgical treatment and prognosis of female breast cancer patients under 35 years.MethodsThe clinical data of 140 cases of female breast cancer patients in the young group ( ≤ 35 years) and 326 cases of female breast cancer patients in the control group ( 45 - 59years) undergoing surgical treatment from 2002 to 2009 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.All the data were analyzed with the statistical software of SPSS13.0.ResultsThe difference between the 2 groups had no statistical significance in tumor size or pathologic types( P >0.05).The axillary lymph node metastasis rate was obviously higher in the young group than in the control group ( P < 0.05 ). Modified radical mastectomy and breast-conserving surgery were mainly performed.The proportion of patients in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ in the young group was higher than that in the control group.The positive rate of ER and PR was lower while the positive rate of HER-2 was higher in the young group than those in the control group( P < 0.05 ).ConclusionsBreast cancer in young women has the features of high clinical stage,high lymph node metastasis rate,low positive rate of ER and PR,high positive rate of HER-2,high recurrence rate and poor prognosis.The treatment principle of the diseaseis comprehensive therapies mainly based on surgical treatment.
