Is moderate ductal carcinoma curable if detected early?


Is moderate ductal carcinoma curable if detected early?

Grade 2 Moderately-differentiated breast cells;
have characteristics between
Grade 1 and Grade 3 tumors. 6,7 75% 63% grade Description Score 5 yr. survival 7 yr. survival Summary of Histologic Grades of Breast Cancer

A tumor with a final sum of 3, 4, or 5 is considered a Grade 1 tumor (well-differentiated). A sum of 6 or 7 is considered a Grade 2 tumor (moderately-differentiated), and a sum of 8 or 9 is a Grade 3 tumor (poorly-differentiated).

Pathologists also look for necrosis (areas of degenerating cancer cells) when determining a tumor鈥檚 grade. Cancers with a high grade, necrosis, cancers close to the surrounding margin of breast tissue of a lumpectomy sample, or large areas of DCIS are more likely to recur after breast cancer treatment than other breast cancers.

It depends on the size of the cancer, if it's spread to any lymph nodes, or if it's contained. If it's contained, then yes it is curable, not to say that there wouldn't ever be a chance that it wouldn't come back though. The only way to not have a recurrance is a masectomy, radiation, and possibly chemo.
