Abstract

Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) has been shown to reduce local recurrence rates among women with early-stage invasive ductal carcinoma, but data regarding its use among women with in situ carcinoma are limited. In this single-institution study, 50 women with in situ carcinoma were treated with oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery (OPS) and single-dose IORT. All 50 patients had “no tumor on ink,” but 9 (16%) had margins < 2 mm and required additional therapy. No local recurrences were observed after a median follow-up of 46 months. Single-dose IORT is an efficacious treatment for well-selected patients with DCIS.
