Description
Summary:Breast cancer is the most prevalent female malignancy. When diagnosed at young age (up to 40 years), negative clinical, morphological and prognostic features are noted. A non-randomized retrospective trial (n=500) was performed to evaluate different scenarios of breast cancer hormone therapy in young patients. Ovarian suppression in young patients is shown to statistically improve prognosis. Disease-free survival rate values are observed to decrease in patients without ovarian suppression in comparison with any type of ovarian suppression, especially at a remote follow-up (after 60 months). Menstrual function resumption and no amenorrhea after chemotherapy significantly decrease disease-free survival rate values in young patients.
