Early High-Risk Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Diagnosed in 33-Year-Old from Taiwan

Reported 8 months ago

In June 19, 2024, at 6:25 AM, 33-year-old Ms. Chen discovered a lump in her right breast while showering 2 years ago, which was initially diagnosed as a 0.5cm fibrous cyst and later found to be early high-risk triple-negative breast cancer, growing from 0.5cm to 4.2cm. With insurance support, she underwent immunotherapy before surgery, resulting in tumor shrinkage to 2.2cm. It's highlighted that regular breast cancer screenings are vital in Taiwan, where one person is diagnosed with breast cancer every 34 minutes. Both patients discussed emphasize the importance of early detection and treatments for triple-negative breast cancer to improve survival rates and reduce recurrence risks.
