Management of DCIS KWH Experience Dr. Carmen Ho
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) • Breast cancer as most common cancer in women in Hong Kong • DCIS as precursor of invasive cancer • Heterogeneous group with diverse malignant potential • Incidence of DCIS increased with mammographic screening • 3/100,000 to 34/100,000 in 50-69 years old Steenbergen. Breast Cancer Res Treat.2009. • Best treatment for DCIS remains a controversy
Management of DCIS • Mastectomy vs. breast conserving treatment + RT • RT reduces local recurrence rate (13.4% vs. 3.9%) NSABP B-17 • Similar local recurrence and survival NSABP B-04 • Acceptance of BCT in Chinese (survey) • 29-49% Chua et al. Breast J. 2005 • BCT rate in HK for breast cancer : 22-30% Yau et al. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys. 2008
KWH experience in DCIS • Retrospective study • Period : January 2002 – April 2009 • Inclusion • Patients diagnosed with DCIS after surgical excision • Patients with micro- or invasive features were not included • 212 patients included • Age : 57.2 (37.8 – 87.5) • Median FU : 31.0 months (0.3 - 81.4 months) • Bilateral disease : 22 • 7 with bilateral disease on presentation
PREsentations • Average size : 2.02cm (0.1 – 7 cm) • Size • Screen detected group : 1.32cm • Symptomatic group : 2.47cm (P<0.01)
Treatment • BCT offered to 175 patients • Unicentric tumor <3cm • Appropriate tumor to breast ratio • Acceptance of adjuvant radiotherapy • 104 patients accepted BCT (59.4%) • 75% were screen detected
Adjuvant Radiotherapy • 96.2% (100/104) have adjuvant RT • 4 patients with small foci (<0.6cm) and low grade DCIS • 1 has IBTR 5 years later as DCIS
OUTcome • 32 patients (31.7%) receiving BCT have close margin (<3mm) • 5 patients underwent re-excision • 8 required subsequent mastectomy • Boost dose of radiotherapy • All free of local recurrence • Sentinel LN biopsy was done in 98 patients • Positive sentinel LN noted in 3 patients • Axillary dissection was performed
Disease free • 198 / 212 (93.4%) remained disease free • Screen detected : 95.4% (124/130) • Symptomatic : 90.2% (74/82)
Local recurrence • 4 patients with BCT have ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (3.8%) • 3 recurred as invasive ductal carcinoma, subsequent mastectomy performed • 1 recurred as DCIS with ROLL done • All remained disease free after salvage treatment
Disease related mortality • 1 patient died • Presented with blood stained nipple discharge • Microdochectomy performed : DCIS with involved margin • Simple mastectomy performed • DCIS (high grade with comedo necrosis) • 6 months after mastectomy, developed bone metastasis
Discussion • Emphasize on importance of screening mammogram • Acceptance of BCT + RT as treatment • 75% patients receiving BCT were screen detected • 69% with clear margin (>3mm) • Positive sentinel LN in 3.0% patients with DCIS • Risk of local recurrence after BCT 3.8% with median FU 31.0 months • Success of salvage treatment after IBTR
