✦ Synopsis

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) was a relatively uncommon disease process when we relied on palpation to detect breast lesions. With the advent of more widespread mammography screenings, the surgeon is faced with a welcome opportunity to prevent cancer by dealing with a precursor lesion. Discovering this once uncommon lesion more frequently, however, has led to additional management questions and problems for the surgeon. We are very pleased to present these two thought-provoking guest editorials on this timely topic by two well-recognized experts on breast cancer management.

MUC1 mucin is a high molecular weight transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the apical cell surface of normal glandular epithelia. In many human adenocarcinomas, this protein is up-regulated and/or underglycosylated, and its expression changes from apical to the entire cell membrane. It is thought
