Methods: Of 10,950 breast cancer patients treated at West China Hospital between 1998 and 2017, 741 younger patients (Results: We identified 11 parameters (all P P P P = 0.024] and HR for DFS = 1.301 [95% CI, 1.077 - 1.572;P = 0.006]). When stratified by tumor subtype, younger patients with T1, N0, tumor stage I, G3, estrogen receptor (ER)-negative, progesterone receptor (PR)-negative, and Ki67 ≥ 14% had a poor BCSS;in addition, patients with T1, N1, tumor stages I and II, G3, ER-negative, PR-negative, and triple-negative had a poorer DFS than older patients. Conclusion: Young age was an independent prognostic factor for BCSS and DFS in breast cancer patients. The increased risk of relapse was most pronounced in early-stage breast cancer, especially in patients with ER-negative disease.展开更多
