Management of Ipsilateral Breast Tumor Recurrence Following Breast Conservation Surgery for Ductal Carcinoma In Situ: A Data-Poor Zone.

For isolated IBTR following BCS for DCIS and treated by mastectomy versus re-BCS (1) mastectomy was associated with less favorable initial pathology and more frequent use of primary RT, (2) re- recurrence was more frequent with re-BCS, and (3) BCSS and OS were comparable. Our data suggest a wider role for re-BCS and further study of the relationship between secondary RT and the rate of third breast events.
