The authors reviewed their institution's experience treating patients with mammographically detected ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast with breast-conserving therapy (BCT) to determine 10-year rates of local control and survival and to identify factors associated with local recurrence.
## BACKGROUND. Although in recent years there has been a dramatic increase in both the incidence of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and breast-conserving therapy for patients who have this disease, the optimal treatment for these patients remains controversial. Most data regarding outcomes have co
