Cancer incidence in Indonesia is more common in women than in men. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women with a cancer incidence rate of 65,858 cases, where the incidence of this cancer often occurs in young women. Methods. This study is a descriptive observational study with a cross sectional research design, which was conducted from September to November. The data collection method is a document study method by collecting patient medical record data at the Hajj Adam Malik Hospital and Murni Teguh Memorial Hospital in 2020-2023. Objective. This study was conducted to determine the incidence of breast cancer in young women as well as its clinical and histopathological features. Results and Discussion. From the study, a total of 102 breast cancer patients were obtained with the highest age distribution in the 40-year-old age group as many as 28 people (27.5%). The most common case, Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, with 101 cases (99.0%). From a clinical point of view, the majority of patients with stage IIIB were found in 32 cases (31.4%) and the clinical presentation was found a lump in the breast in 100 cases (98.0%).
