Abstract :

 Breast cancer in young age has poor prognosis. Clinicopathological parameters along with FNAC, histological features and immunohistochemistry for diagnosis of east cancer in young females were analysed. This study was conducted from January 2013 to July 2016, in Department of Pathology. Females less than 40 years, who were diagnosed east malignancy on FNAC were included in the study. A total of 32 cases were analysed, out of which 18 cases were followed up by histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry. The youngest patient was of 21 years. Majority of cases were invasive duct carcinoma. One case of pleomorphic variant of lobular carcinoma and one case of ductal carcinoma with mucinous differentiation was reported. Breast cancer is not uncommon in young age in India. These patients have a higher incidence of invasive ductal carcinoma, a greater number of lymph node–positive cancers. FNAC is a reliable and fast method for diagnosing east cancer, even in young age, where radiological findings are not very reliable.
