dc.description.abstractObjective: Breast cancer, the most common malignancy among women, is a universally challenging health problem. It is a known fact that the incidence of breast cancer increases with age. In addition, mortality and morbidity increase with age. For now, it does not seem possible to reduce the incidence of breast cancer but it is possible to limit deaths caused by it. Patients are encouraged to get early diag- nosis and age-appropriate screening tests. Because regular screening and early diagnosis are very important in improving breast cancer outcomes. Factors such as age, hormonal status and genetics are associated with the incidence of breast cancer. In this study, we aimed to contribute to the literature by examining age-related mortality and morbidity of breast cancer. Method: This study was carried out at a University Hospital. The sample consisted of 214 women between 01.09.2018/01.09.2022 diagno- sed with breast cancer, aged 30 to 80 years. Results: The mean age of women was 51.9 ± 7.6 years, with 52.8% being <50 years. Breast-conserving surgery was performed on 56.5% of the total participants (n=121). In our series, deaths due to breast cancer are less than 1% under the age of 50 and over 3% in those over the age of 50. Conclusion: Education campaigns should focus on increasing breast cancer awareness among young women, highlighting the importance of early detection and regular screenings. Each patient should receive a tailored treatment plan that considers their age, tumor characte- ristics, fertility preservation preferences, and long-term health goals.en_US
