Abstract
Screening mammography identifies very small cancers. Involvement of the surgical margins is a determining factor for local treatment of breast cancer and is an accurate predictor of risk of recurrence. Disease-free survival is almost 100% in patients undergoing mastectomy, although the preferred therapy in cases of DCIS is local treatment with breast conservation.
