Just Diagnosed with DCIS

sedmokc

Just diagnosed with DCIS.  Just received pathology report.  Not sure what all this means and what to expect from a treatment perspective.  Meet with surgeon for first time next week.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

DCIS, nuclear grade 2, micropapillary type with asscociated microcalcifications. 

Estrogen = positive 100%, staining 3+

Progesterone = postitive 100%, staining 3+

Gross Description: 12 o'clock is a 1.5 x 1.5 x 0.4cm aggregate of multiple cores and fragments.  

I assume the area is bigger since the core needle biopsy only was a sample.  

 Thanks,

Sharon
