The prognosis of phyllodes tumor is good with an overall 87% 10-year survival rate. [5] After wide-margin surgical excision, 98.7% of benign phyllodes tumors and 80% of borderline were cured. [25] In rare cases where the tumor has metastasized, the prognosis is poor. [5] This most commonly occurs in cases of malignant grade phyllodes tumor. [5]
A fibroepithelial neoplasm (or tumor) is a biphasic tumor. They consist of epithelial tissue, and stromal or mesenchymal tissue. They may be benign or malignant. [1] Examples include: Brenner tumor of the ovary; Fibroadenoma of the breast; Phyllodes tumor of the breast; Sometimes fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs) of the vulva may be misdiagnosed as ...
Approximately 7% of breast lumps are fibroadenomas and 10% are breast cancer, the rest being other benign conditions or no disease. [ 4 ] Phyllodes tumor is a fibroepithelial tumor which can be benign, borderline or malignant.
Fibroadenoma of the breast is a benign tumor composed of a biplastic proliferation of both stromal and epithelial components. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] This biplasia can be arranged in two growth patterns: pericanalicular (stromal proliferation around epithelial structures) and intracanalicular (stromal proliferation compressing the epithelial structures ...

The American Cancer Society reports 5-year relative survival rates of over 70% for women with stage 0-III breast cancer with a 5-year relative survival rate close to 100% for women with stage 0 or stage I breast cancer. The 5-year relative survival rate drops to 22% for women with stage IV breast cancer. [3]
Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) is the term used for a benign lesion of the breast that indicates an increased risk of breast cancer. [1]The name of the entity is descriptive of the lesion; ADH is characterized by cellular proliferation (hyperplasia) within one or two breast ducts and (histomorphologic) architectural abnormalities, i.e. the cells are arranged in an abnormal or atypical way ...
Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) is an overgrowth of myofibroblastic cells in the breast. It has an appearance similar to fibroadenomatoid changes. [1] The diagnostic significance is currently uncertain, but it appears to be benign. There have been cases of PASH diagnosed where the tumors co-exist with breast cancer.
