What Are The Challenges Of Managing DCIS? - Oncology Support Network

What Are The Challenges Of Managing DCIS? In this informative video, we will discuss the complexities associated with managing ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), a non-invasive form of breast cancer often referred to as stage zero. We will explore the various treatment options available, including active surveillance and more aggressive approaches, as well as the ongoing debates surrounding these choices. One area of concern is the issue of overdiagnosis, where many individuals diagnosed with DCIS may never progress to invasive cancer, leading to unnecessary treatments that pose their own risks.

We will also address the importance of patient decision-making in the management of DCIS. Many patients may not have access to comprehensive information regarding their condition and treatment options, impacting their overall well-being. Our discussion will highlight the need for improved resources that support shared decision-making, ensuring that patients consider their quality of life when making choices about their care.

Additionally, we will touch on current research focusing on identifying low-risk patients and the disparities in breast cancer outcomes among different racial and socioeconomic groups. Join us as we navigate the challenges of DCIS management and the advancements in technology that hold promise for future treatment strategies.
