LOPEZ CUEVAS, Zoraida Caridad et al. Breast cancer in young women. Presentation of two cases. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2018, vol.40, n.4, pp. 1186-1196. ISSN 1684-1824.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer is a frequent disease and constitutes a health problem of great repercussion in the female population due to its high incidence and mortality. The diagnosis and treatment of this disease produces a great uncertainty and feelings of lack over their life in the affected women, because they consider the disease potentially deadly and having a high frequency of tumor recurrence. All of that considerably affects their quality of life, and is significantly greater when it occurs in young women. In the current study, two female patients are presented, one of them aged 28 years and the other aged 30 years; their opinion was taken into account for the option of the disease surgical treatment.
