Some of the local breast surgeons will order Oncotype DCIS and if its low risk, will tell the patient they don't need radiation but still refer to me. I give them the numbers from the trials, no survival benefit etc, discuss caveats of Oncotype DCIS, and let them decide. They are often very convinced they don't need radiation prior to seeing me. If they are high grade and younger, I will push them pretty hard to reconsider. It used to be that with low risk tumors, the recurrence risk provided by Oncotype DCIS was ~10% still with omission. They have now refined their supposed algorithm to include other factors such as size and will give recurrence numbers that are low single digits on their printout.
The primary risk is losing your breast and/or having to undergo the stress of a local recurrence. Omitting radiation puts the patient at minimal risk in regards to survival. The chance of the patient having an aggressive invasive local recurrence that cannot be salvaged is so low that it has never been born out in any of the studies to my knowledge. I don't lose sleep if they choose not to do radiation.
