| breast cancer when suspect ? | usually painless, breast mass, ill defined mass, FIXED mass, skin changes ( orange peeling, dimpling, erythema), nipple retraction,axilary LAN |
| ductal carcinoma in situ tx | * lumpectomy + radiation ( reccurence 5-10%)
* modified radical mastectomy ( reccurence <1%) |
| lobular carcinoma in situ dif | most common to find incidentaly, marker for increase of invasive cancer in either breast |
| lobular carcinoma in situ tx | *1 qd observation,
