Article Title: | Age and molecular subtypes: Impact on surgical decisions |
Abstract: | Both young patient age and breast cancer molecular subtype impact local recurrence rates and long-term prognosis for women with breast cancer. Although rates of local recurrence are consistently higher in young women and those with high-risk molecular subtypes, this risk does not appear to be overcome by more extensive surgery. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. |
