Popis: | INTRODUCTION: Women with triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) have a tendency to present at younger ages and with more advanced disease. We sought to comprehensively evaluate the characteristic features, surgical management, and survival outcomes of a large, population-based cohort of patients with TNBC according to age at diagnosis. METHODS: We queried the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to identify women aged 18 years or older with a diagnosis of TNBC between 2010-2014. Clinicopathologic and treatment level variables were compared amongst TNBC patients according to age at the time of TNBC diagnosis. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox PH Regression was then used to examine short-term breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) outcomes. RESULTS: Between 2010-2014, 214,138 women were diagnosed with breast cancer, of which 23,614 (11.13%) had TNBC. The median age at TNBC diagnosis was 57.7 years. Younger TNBC patients were more likely to be of African American ( CONCLUSION: In the population studied, more than 40% of very young women with TNBC are of African American or Hispanic race. When compared to older ages, younger women with TNBC are more likely to receive bilateral mastectomy and have more advanced stage at presentation. Women at both age extremes (≥70 years and Citation Format: Wong SM, Boileau J-F, Martel K, Ferrario C, Basik M.
