Excerpt

Treatment options for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) include breast-conserving surgery (BCS), BCS with adjuvant irradiation or endocrine therapy or both, and mastectomy. When extent of disease permits oncologically safe selection of various approaches, patient decision making may be complex. Concerns about perceived risk of locoregional recurrence (LRR) have been shown to significantly influence patient decisions, but quality-of-life considerations are also important.1 The goal of preoperative treatment planning should be to help a woman optimally weigh LRR risk and quality-of-life issues for the various options.2
