Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy and Adequate Margins for Patients With Ductal Carcinoma In Situ

DISCUSSION: No specific margin status was found to correlate with recurrence for patients with DCIS or DCIS + MI undergoing NSM, with an altogether low recurrence risk. Overall, this suggests that recommended DCIS margins in BCS doesn't necessarily apply in NSM, where margins of <2 mm may be acceptable.PMID:38605446 | DOI:10.1177/00031348241246179
