✦ Synopsis

discusses the problem of ductal carcinoma in situ. They state that microcalcifications may be the only sign of the lesion and that the biopsy procedure is aimed at removal of all microcalcifications. If a breast conserving operation is performed, the removal of the microcalcifications with free margins, and confirmation by specimen radiography to verify that microcalcifications have been removed, may be the only procedure necessary. The name of this procedure is microcalcificectomy ' or calcificectomy (kal'si-fi-sek'tb-mi) or simply calcifectomy. It is an accurate description of this operation which no doubt will be increasingly performed in the conservative treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ.
