Abstract:Background: Breast cancer (BC) in young patients (<45 years) is an infrequent disease but current evidence suggest that there is an increase incidence in the last decades. After finishing adjuvant therapy, the risk of relapse or death does not increase with pregnancy. Under 40 years, fertility preservation could be an option because pregnancy after 40 usually requires in vitro fertilization techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
