Resumo: |
Introduction: Phyllodes tumors (PT) are rare and account for 0.3% to 0.5% of all breast tumors. PT may be classified as benign, borderline or malignant. The aim of this study was to report a case of malignant PT of the breast. Case report: A 27-year-old woman presented with a mass in the left breast with histopathological features of malignancy (results of US of the breast: an oval, lobulated hypoechogenic lesion, measuring 7.7 cm – BI-RADS® 4C). A segmental resection (SR) of the breast was performed and histopathology study of the surgical specimen confirmed a malignant PT. Adjuvant radiotherapy was used for supplemental treatment. One year later, the patient had a local recurrence of the primary tumor and underwent a new SR of the left breast. There was no indication of breast reirradiation. At about 31 months after diagnosis (September 2019 – April 2022), the patient is well and adherent to periodical clinical follow-up. Conclusion: This study presents a case of malignant PT that occurred in a young patient and had a more aggressive course. |
