TLDR
To assess the potential of breast-conserving treatment for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), 82 mastectomy specimens were studied by Egan's serial subgross method and found adequate excision of many DCIS will require a wide excision involving up to a whole quadrant.About:

Histologic multifocality of Tis, T1-2 breast carcinomas. Implications for clinical trials of breast-conserving surgery.
TL;DR: The expected rates of local recurrences after breast‐conserving surgical procedures relative to the extensiveness of the excision are estimated and the possible impact of postoperative local radiation therapy on the rates of expected local recurrence is discussed.

Pathologic findings from the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast Project (protocol 6). I. Intraductal carcinoma (DCIS).
TL;DR: There are no compelling reasons why DCIS may not be treated in a cosmetically acceptable manner by LX, and estimates of the probability of local recurrence or survival suggest that they will not be significantly altered after longer periods of surveillance.

The presence of an extensive intraductal component following a limited excision correlates with prominent residual disease in the remainder of the breast.

TL;DR: Patients whose tumors contain an EIC more frequently have a large subclinical tumor burden in the remainder of the breast compared with patients whose tumors do not contain anEIC, which may explain the association between EIC and subsequent breast recurrence when patients are treated with a limited excision before radiotherapy.

Duct carcinoma in situ. Relationship of extent of noninvasive disease to the frequency of occult invasion, multicentricity, lymph node metastases, and short-term treatment failures
TL;DR: It is suggested that an important predictive factor for the presence of occult invasion and multicentricity in the resected breast is the extent of the noninvasive lesion.
