Abstract Many patients with positive margins following breast-conserving surgery (BCS) undergo re-excisions that aim to remove residual disease from the breast, which brings a tremendous emotional burden in addition to financial consequences. We sought to determine whether re-excisions could be safely avoided without compromising local control and survival by using whole-breast radiation therapy (WBRT) with a tumor bed boost in patients with early-stage breast cancer with focally positive, tumor-exposed margins after BCS. All patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and/or invasive breast cancer (IBC) who had pathologically tumor-exposed margins following BCS, without re-excision and treated with WBRT with tumor bed boost between March 2005 and December 2011, were included. The radiotherapy consisted of WBRT at a dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions, followed by a tumor bed boost with an additional dose of 16 Gy in eight fractions. A total of 125 patients fulfilled the eligibility criteria; of the 125 patients, 1 had bilateral breast cancer, resulting in 126 cases. Invasive disease was found in 102 (81%) cases and purely ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) disease in 24 (19%) cases. The 10-year ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) -free survival, progression-free survival (PFS), and 10-year overall survival (OS) rates were 95%, 92.5% and 96%, respectively. Patients with early-stage breast cancer who receive BCS and have focally positive, tumor-exposed margins can avoid re-excision by undergoing WBRT followed by a sufficient dose of tumor bed boost, without negatively impacting local control and survival.

Abstract Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is performed in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) because of the small size of the tumor. It is essential to know the quantitative extent of the tumor before performing this precise partial resection surgery. A three-dimensional printed (3DP) breast surgical guide (BSG) was developed using information obtained from supine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 3D printing technology and it was used for treating patients with breast cancer. Here, we report our experience with the application of the BSG for patients with DCIS. Patients with breast cancer who underwent BCS from July 2017 to February 2019 were included in this study. The patients underwent partial resection with a supine-MRI based 3DP-BSG. A total of 102 BCS using 3DP-BSG were conducted, and 11 cases were DCIS. The patients’ median age was 56 years (range, 38–69 years). The mean tumor diameter was 1.3 ± 0.9 cm. The median surgical time was 70 min (range, 40–88 min). All patients had tumor-free resection margins. The median distance from the tumor to the margin was 11 mm (range, 2–35 mm). Direct demarcation of the tumor extent in the breast and a pain-free procedure are the advantages of using 3DP-BSG in patients with DCIS.

519 Background: Most women diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) undergo surgical resection, potentially leading to overtreatment of patients who would not develop clinically significant breast cancer in the absence of locoregional treatment. We compared the risk of ipsilateral invasive breast cancer (iIBC) between DCIS patients who received breast conserving surgery (BCS) for their index diagnosis of DCIS (BCS group) and patients who did not receive any locoregional treatment within 6 months of diagnosis (surveillance [SV] group). Methods: A treatment-stratified random sample of patients diagnosed with screen-detected and biopsy-confirmed DCIS in 2008-14 was selected from 1,330 Commission on Cancer-accredited facilities (20/site). Excluding patients who received a mastectomy ≤6 months, the final analytic cohort contained 14,245 (88.2%) BCS and 1,914 (11.8%) SV patients. Subsequent breast events were abstracted up to 10 years after diagnosis. Primary outcome was the 8-year absolute difference in iIBC risk between BCS and SV; a subgroup analysis was performed for grade I/II patients. A propensity score (PS) model for treatment was fitted with sampling design (SD) weighting and random effects for patients within facilities. Absolute risk differences were estimated using PS-SD-weighted Kaplan Meier estimators. Results: Overall, median age at diagnosis was 61 years (IQR: 52-69) and median follow-up was 5.8 years (95% CI 5.7-6.1). The majority of patients were Caucasian (81.9%), with estrogen receptor-positive (80.6%), and nuclear grade I/II (54.5%) DCIS. The fraction of patients with a Charlson comorbidity score of ≥2 was higher in SV (14.2%) compared to BCS (6.4%, p < 0.001). The 8-year risk of iIBC was 3.0% (95% CI: 2.4%-3.6%) for BCS and 7.7% (95% CI: 4.9%-10.5%) for SV, with an absolute risk difference of 4.7% (95% CI: 4.5%-4.9%; log-rank p < 0.001). Among patients with grade I/II tumors, the 8-year risk of iIBC was 3.1% (95% CI: 2.3%-4.0%) for BCS and 6.1% (95% CI: 2.5%-9.8%) for SV; difference: 3.0% (95% CI: 2.7%-3.2%; p = 0.005). Conclusions: Despite an increased risk of iIBC in SV patients compared to BCS patients, the 8-year risk did not exceed 10% in either group. The risk of recurrence in BCS patients was comparable to previously reported estimates. These data demonstrate a considerable degree of overtreatment among patients with non-high grade DCIS. Prospective clinical trials will help determine the tradeoffs between universally directed as opposed to selectively applied surgery for low risk DCIS.

Abstract Background Preoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides more information than mammography and ultrasonography for determining the surgical plan for patients with breast cancer. This study aimed to determine whether breast MRI is more useful for patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) lesions than for those with invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Methods A total of 1113 patients with breast cancer underwent mammography, ultrasonography, and additional breast MRI before surgery. The patients were divided into 2 groups: DCIS (n = 199) and IDC (n = 914), and their clinicopathological characteristics and oncological outcomes were compared. Breast surgery was classified as follows: conventional breast-conserving surgery (Group 1), partial mastectomy with volume displacement (Group 2), partial mastectomy with volume replacement (Group 3), and total mastectomy with or without reconstruction (Group 4). The initial surgical plan (based on routine mammography and ultrasonography) and final surgical plan (after additional breast MRI) were compared between the 2 groups. The change in surgical plan was defined as group shifting between the initial and final surgical plans. Results Changes (both increasing and decreasing) in surgical plans were more common in the DCIS group than in the IDC group (P <  0.001). These changes may be attributed to the increased extent of suspicious lesions on breast MRI, detection of additional daughter nodules, multifocality or multicentricity, and suspicious findings on mammography or ultrasonography but benign findings on breast MRI. Furthermore, the positive margin incidence in frozen biopsy was not different (P = 0.138). Conclusions Preoperative breast MRI may provide more information for determining the surgical plan for patients with DCIS than for those with IDC.

e12103 Background: Women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or early stage breast cancer have a good prognosis after breast conservation treatment (BCT), and are at risk for second malignant neoplasms (SMNs). The long-term risk of SMNs is not well established and carries important public health implications. Methods: A total of 755 women with DCIS or stage I-II invasive breast cancer underwent breast-conserving surgery followed by definitive breast irradiation between 1995 and 2001. Systemic therapy (chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy) was given to 73% of the patients. We have previously described patient demographics and 15-year oncologic outcomes in detail (Vapiwala, Cancer, 2017). The patient records were reviewed for development of SMNs. SMNs of any anatomic site (other than contralateral breast cancer and basal/squamous cell carcinoma of the skin) were included for analysis. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to determine the rate of SMNs over time. Median follow-up was 13.8 years. Results: The 5-, 10-, and 15-year rates of developing any SMN were 3.6% (95% CI 2.4-5.3%), 7.8% (95% CI 6.0-10.2%), and 12.7% (95% CI 10.2-15.8%). The most common SMNs were uterine (n=12), leukemia/lymphoma (n=11), melanoma (n=10), ovarian (n=9), and lung (n=7). Conclusions: Development of SMNs is a substantial risk for a protracted period of time following BCT. Clinical patterns of specific SMN histologies, locations and time course of development suggest potential opportunities for screening and treatment to guide patient survivorship clinics and protocols.

Purpose There is concern that women with multifocal ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS; confined to one quadrant) who are treated with breast-conserving surgery face a high risk of local recurrence; therefore, many are treated with mastectomy. The objective of this study is to evaluate the significance of multifocality and the outcomes of women with multifocal DCIS treated with breast-conserving therapy. Methods The records of patients treated with breast-conserving surgery for DCIS between 1982 and 2000 were reviewed. Multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate the effects of multifocality and other prognostic factors on the rate of local recurrence. Results Of 615 cases of DCIS reviewed, 310 (41%) received breast-conserving surgery and 305 (40%) received breast-conserving surgery plus radiation (n = 260 with multifocality, n = 314 without multifocality, and n = 31 focality unreported). On multivariate analysis, multifocality (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.80; 95% CI, 1.15 to 2.80; P = .01), radiation treatment (HR = 0.46; 95% CI, 0.29 to 0.74; P = .001), margin width 4 mm or smaller (HR = 1.74; 95% CI, 1.03 to 2.92; P = .04), and high nuclear grade (HR = 1.65; 95% CI, 1.02 to 2.65; P = .04) were associated with risk of local recurrence. The detrimental effect of multifocality was limited to women who did not receive radiotherapy; the local recurrence–free survival rate at 10 years was 59% for women with multifocal disease and 80% for women without multifocality (P = .02). Among women treated with breast-conserving surgery plus radiation, there was no difference in 10-year local recurrence–free survival (80% v 87%; P = .35). There was no association between multifocality and the development of invasive recurrence. Conclusion Multifocality is a significant predictor of local recurrence in women who receive breast-conserving surgery for DCIS without radiotherapy; however, low recurrence rates can be achieved if adjuvant radiation is administered.
