There were disparities in breast cancer among younger non-Hispanic black (NHB) vs. non-Hispanic white (NHW) women. Life expectancy (years) for localized to distant stage: NHB (32 to 7), NHW (33 to 10) and Hispanic (39 to 12). Years of life lost for younger NHB, NHW and Hispanic women were: 16, 12 and 14, respectively. Probability of developing breast cancer by age 45: NHB (1:86), NHW (1:87) and Hispanic (1:132).
