Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

Phyllodes tumor of the breast usually is a biphasic fibroepithelial neoplasm. Malignant transformation is seen in 10 to 20 % of cases and manifests in the form of fibrosarcomatous differentiation and rarely heterologous sarcomatous elements. Liposarcomatous differentiation is a rare entity among phyllodes tumors. Spindle cell carcinoma is an unusual neoplasm commonly observed in the oral cavity1 and the larynx 2 . However, on rare occasions it occurs in the breast3, 4. Primary pure breast sarcoma is a rare disease and constitutes 0.2–1.0% of all mammary malignancies5 .
