dc.description.abstract	Although breast cancer in women aged 40 years or younger is rare, these women face unique challenges. A strong family history of breast cancer can help identify young women at potentially high risk of breast cancer who would benefit from referral for risk assessment. A multidisciplinary approach to management includes guiding the patient through diagnosis and treatment. Addressing psychosocial impacts and counselling young patients about the impacts on fertility are essential.	-
