Breast Cancer in Chinese Females Aged 25 Years and Younger.

Breast cancer in females ≤25 years old was associated with aggressive clinical features and a worse prognosis. Young females with breast lumps should receive timely diagnosis and treatment. Young breast cancer patients with lymphovascular invasion, PR-negative status, and lymph node metastasis have an increased risk of experiencing recurrence and metastasis and should hence be closely monitored. Age at diagnosis should not be the sole deciding factor for surgical treatment methods.
