| | Carcinoma in situ describes a cancer in the very earliest stage. | | | The doctor will want to monitor the person closely to see whether carcinoma in situ comes back at the same spot or whether a new one develops somewhere else. | | | Most cancers, however, do not stay in situ for long and begin to spread. |
