  • Abstract:
  • Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the world and the leading cause of cancer death. While women develop breast cancer in approximately 99% of cases, men develop breast cancer in only 0.5% to 1% of cases. The chance of getting cancer is one in eight. According to available data, breast cancer is by far the leading cause of cancer related deaths in women under 45 years of age. Younger patients usually have more aggressive tumors (more mitotically active and higher grade) and negative cells (triple negative or basal-like) are more common. Thanks to advances in modern medicine and the worldwide push to delay childbearing, young women are being diagnosed with and treated for breast cancer before they give birth. Pregnancy planning has become more common among young women with a history of breast cancer. In this difficult situation, many issues should be discussed with the patient, such as cancer risk, birth control, chemotherapy for premature ovarian failure, the possibility of cancer and subsequent pregnancy. Discussion of obstetric issues with the patient and her partner, the long-term teratogenicity of contraceptives and breastfeeding are other important factors.
