LCIS

Clusters of ductules or acini filled, distorted and distended by proliferating epithelial cells.

Normal mammogram

Non palpable, incidental finding at biopsy

Multifocal, multicentric, bilateral

2

LCIS

Associated with lobular and tubular carcinomas

Decrease after menopause

Risk of invasive cancer is low 21% in 15yrs

3

Treatment

Surgery: Excision with close observation Ipsilateral mastectomy without LN

dissection + biopsy of contralateral breast Bilateral mastectomy

Especially if BRCA mutation or strong FH Observation Tamoxifen or Raloxifene No role for RT

4

Pleomorphic LCIS

Pleomorphic LCIS is aggressive variant May behave as DCIS Consider complete excision with negative

margins

04/21/23 5

DCIS

Presents as palpable mass

Abnormal mammogram 72% = microcalcifications 10% = tissue density, 12% both

Peak incidence: 51 - 59 yrs

> 4.5 cm DCIS has 42% incidence of invasion

6

Histologic subtypes of DCIS

High N G Microinvasion

Micropapillary 20% 30% Papillary 7% 7% Comedo (Her2/neu +) 89% 63% Solid, Cripriform 0% 0%

7

Multicentricity/Multifocality

Multicentricity: Second separate DCIS at least 5 cm from

primary site 25% in microscopic, 37% in palpable DCIS More common in micropapillary

Multifocality: Within same quadrant or within 5 cm of

primary site

8

Diagnosis of DCIS

Multiview mammography + US Characteristic mammographic findings

Diffuse, Linear, extensive pleomorphic calcifications

FNA is not ideal Needle localization biopsy +/- specimen

radiography

9

Before starting treatment

Careful pathologic evaluation for: Negative marginsType and sizeMultifocality and microinvasionAll suspicious areas

Consider specimen radiographyPost-Excision mammography

Whenever uncertainty about adequacy of excision

04/21/23 11

SLND and DCIS

Complete ALND is not required in the absence of invasive component or proven mets

Consider SLND if: The pt is to be treated with mastectomy

or excision in anatomic location compromising the performance of future SLND

04/21/23 12

Lumpectomy

Wide excision + RT 5-20% local failure 50% of recurrences are invasive Patients with low risk could be treated

with lumpectomy alone Wide excision alone for favorable histology

10-22% local failure rate

Schmitt NEJM 1988, Lagios Cancer 1989

13

Re-resection to obtain a negative margins

Mastectomy if negative margins are not feasible

04/21/23 14

MastectomyMastectomy

Mastectomy +/- SLND +/- Reconstruction Non-palpable DCIS:

Mastectomy without axillary dissection 100% long term survival

15

Patients found to have invasive disease at mastectomy or re-excision:

Should be managed as stage I or II LN staging

04/21/23 16

DCIS surgical margins

Margins >10 mm Widely accepted as negative May cause less cosmetic outcome

Margins < 1 mm is considered inadequate At chest wall or skin do not mandate re-excision May treat with higher boast dose of RT

Margins 1-10 mm The wider the margins associated with lower

local recurrence

04/21/23 17

Risk of recurrence of DCIS

Palpable mass Larger size Higher Grade Close or involved margins Age <50

04/21/23 18

DCIS post-surgical treatment

Ipsilateral breast: Tamoxifen X 5yrs

Following L/RT especially if ER +ve Benefit for ER negative is uncertain

04/21/23 19

LumpectomyLumpectomy

Excision + RT NSABP-B-17 (Lumpectomy + RT)

5Y EFS: 84.4% vs 75.8% (P 0.001) No change in OS

DCIS: Recurrence Rate

Noninv % Inv % Excision alone 11 14 Excision + RT 4 5

Surg Oncol Clin North Am 2:75,1993

NSABP B-24

Tamoxifen followin L/RT: 5% absolute reduction in recurrence risk 37% reduction in relative risk of recurrence

04/21/23 22

Update of B17 and B 24

Lumpectomy/RT/Tam: RT reduce invasive recurrence by 59% Tam add 27% reduction RT/Tam reduce invasive recurrence by 70%

04/21/23 23

DCIS post-surgical treatment

Contalateral breast: Counseling regarding consideration of

Tamoxifen for risk reduction

04/21/23 24

NSABP Breast cancer preventive trial

Tamoxifen reduce invasive cancer by 75% Tamoxefin reduces benign breast disease
