title: [Ductal carcinoma in situ].
abstract: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is now found far more frequently because of mammograms, appearing with microcalcifications. Actually, it is probably very common. Premalignant lesions such as ductal carcinoma in situ are demonstrating the truth of a major concept: that there are lesions within the breast that may be locally removed and controlled before the development of metastatic disease. This article, presents the current management of ductal carcinoma in situ.
