Out of a total of 374 patients admitted and managed for breast cancer in a period of 12 years, 14 (3.74%) were aged 30 and below (mean 26.31 years); Their parity ranged between 0 and 4 (mean 1.5) and the duration of symptoms before presentation ranged between 3 weeks and 3 years. 6 cases involved the right breast, 4 the left and 3 were bilateral. All the patients presented with advanced breast cancer (stage 4 disease). Ten had invasive ductal Ca while one each had lobular carcinoma, lymphoma and malignant phyllodes tumour respectively.\u0000 Management was multimodal: neovadjuvant chemotherapy, tamoxifen, mastectomy and referral for radiotherapy. Two developed features of depressive illness in the course of treatment; 6 died within 6 months of presentation, 1 after 3 months, 1 refused mastectomy discharged herself against in favour of traditional healers. The remaining 6 were lost to follow-up.\u0000 It is confirmed that as else where, in Nigerians breast cancer in younger women is associated with a high degree of morbidity and mortality as well as physical and emotional stress.

Of the 12,743 patients who were admitted to the operating theatre suites in the period, excluding obstetric cases, 47 (i.e. 0.37%) deaths were recorded, consisting of 24 males and 23 females, aged between 5 months and 72 years. Thirty-two (68%) of the deaths were associated with emergency procedures, and fifteen (32%) were elective. Thirty-six of the patients (76.6%), had general anaesthesia. The patients' medical condition contributed to 51% of the deaths, followed by anesthesia (38.3%) and surgery (8.5%). Twenty-four of the deceased (51.1%), were booked for abdominal surgery, while head/neck procedures accounted for 14 (29.8%). The death rate of 37 per 10,000 seems high, when compared to western values, but is akin to figures from similar institutions in developing countries like ours.
