High consistency between characteristics of primary intraductal breast cancer and subtype of subsequent ipsilateral invasive cancer.

CONCLUSION: The high consistency between the features of primary DCIS and those of subsequent IBC (in the rare but not negligible cases of local failure) should be borne in mind when considering the therapeutic options. Treatment de-escalation and accrual of patients for active surveillance trials could be appropriate for luminal-like precursors. PMID: 31446852 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
