Hazard ratios were adjusted for the following: age (20‐39, 40‐49, 50‐59, 60‐69, or ≥70 years) and year of the primary DCIS diagnosis (1990‐1999, 2000‐2009, or 2010‐2015); treatment for primary DCIS (no surgical treatment, breast‐conserving surgery alone, breast‐conserving surgery followed by radiation therapy, mastectomy, or unknown); and histopathological features of primary DCIS, including the tumor size (<2 cm, 2‐5 cm, ≥5 cm, or unknown), grade (well differentiated, moderately differentiated, poorly differentiated, or unknown), histology (comedo, papillary, cribriform, solid, or not otherwise specified), and hormone receptor expression (positive, negative, or unknown).
