Breast Cancer: Case Study

Submit Abstract Register Now

Breast cancer is quite rare in very young women. It is a disease primarily of older women, with 75% of cases occurring in women over 50 years of age. Only 6.5% of cases occur in women under 40 years of age, and a mere 0.6% of cases in women under 30 years of age. Thus, in the U.S., only about 1,200 cases of breast cancer occur in women under 30 years of age each year. Similarly, any such studies, which prove deviation from the normal outline, have been considered under the case study.
