Abstract

Malignant Breast Cancer is a life-threatening condition, with wide-world growing impact. The incidence of neoplastic malignant breast disease is showing a shifting paradigm, occurring overtime in younger ages. The authors report a case of an eighteen year-old Caucasian woman complaining with an induration in her left breast for seven months, diagnosed as invasive ductal carcinoma spread to axillary sentinel lymph node. There was no family history of cancer and the patient had no personal history of risk behaviour. She underwent a breast-conservative surgery and axillary lymph node dissection. After surgery she started chemotherapy, followed by radiation and hormonal therapy. She is observed regularly by Oncology, with no signs of secondary involvement.
