Recent increase of breast cancer incidence among women under the age of forty

Using data from the Geneva Cancer Registry, we found that in 2002–2004, breast cancer incidence in women aged 25–39 years increased by 46.7% per year (95% CI: 7.1–74.0, P =0.015), which surveillance or detection bias may not fully explain.
