BC is more likely to present at a younger age (≤ 35 years) and with more aggressive characteristics (G3, triple-negative, Ki67 ≥ 25%) in YW with BRCA mutation compared with their non-mutated counterparts. Young BRCA-mutation carriers showed a poorer prognosis in terms of recurrence and survival compared with non-carriers. The implementation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy may improve survival in YW with BC and BRCA mutation.
