Phylloides Tumors of the Breast: A Case Series with Review of the Literature

Introduction: Phylloides tumors (PT) represent a rare entity of fibroepithelial breast tumors. The incidence ranges between 0.3-1% of all breast tumors. PT tend to have a high local recurrence rate, ranging between 28-46% after local excision. Due to their very low incidence, the available evidence is limited. A recent review of the literature accompanied by a presentation of routine and extraordinary PT cases from our hospital focuses on an update for treatment and oncological outcome of this rare entity.
