I believe calling it dcis means cancer. Ductal carcinoma ( cancer) in situ which means in one place,contained

Okay so yours must have come back malignancy? Mine came back as benign so they didn’t say anything about it being cancerous.

Yes...I was told cancer . It was extremely early and tiny. Estrogen and progesterone receptor positive. So small they had to magnify it.in the mammogram while doing the biopsy. If your.biopsy was negative it must not actually be dcis . Just microcalcificstions. There are some that are benign and some arent.
