Introduction
generally in reference to breast ductal carcinoma in situ
Laboratory
- DCIS intraductal extension in breast cancer specimen
- DCIS necrosis in breast cancer specimen
- DCIS additional dimension in breast cancer specimen
- DCIS maximum dimension in breast cancer specimen
- growth pattern of DCIS in breast cancer specimen
- surgical margin DCIS involvement in breast cancer
- tissue blocks positive for DCIS
Radiology
- followup annual mammography[3]
Complications
- elevated risk for subsequent invasive breast cancer & breast cancer- related mortality (RR>2)[9][10]
Management
- ductal carcinoma in situ, although not a life-threatening condition, is generally treated similarly to invasive breast cancer[5]
- wide surgical excision followed by radiation therapy (MKSAP19)[3]
- mastectomy of cancer cannot be completely removed (MKSAP19)[3]
- watchful waiting with close observation is an option discussed in[7]
- surgical excision
- prognosis good after breast-conserving surgery[2]
- radiotherapy may reduce risk of subsequent ipsilateral breast cancer
- tamoxifen & aromatase inhibitors may reduce risk of subsequent breast cancer in estrogen receptor positive DCIS (either side)
- editorialist suggests higher-grade tumors pose greatest risk of recurrence & radiotherapy or chemotherapy may be overtreatment of DCIS
- lumpectomy with radiotherapy or mastectomy reduces risk for recurrence of invasive breast cancer at 10 years, but dues not reduce breast cancer-specific mortality[3][6] or overall 10-year mortality[3]
- routine use of radiation therapy & extensive follow-up screening probably not cost-effective[6]
- bilateral mastectomy eliminates benefit of radiotherapy or hormonal therapy[3]
- avoiding the word 'cancer' in shared decision making discussions increases the likelihood a women will choose non-surgical intervention[4]
