- Abstract
For women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast who have been treated with breastconserving surgery, the usefulness of size and surgical margin status (i.e., presence or absence of disease at the point of excision) as prognostic factors for predicting residual disease has not been well established. This study was conducted to determine more clearly the relationship between size and margin status of mammary DCIS to residual disease.
