We present a case of phyllodes tumor of the breast in a 78-year-old woman evaluated with Tc-99m (V)DMSA and Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography, acquired in separate sessions (10 and 60 min post-injection). Tc-99m (V)DMSA was accumulated intensely within the mass [tumor to background ratio (T/B) >3], whereas Tc-99m MIBI had significantly lower uptake (T/B 1.9). Histology revealed a phyllodes tumor (m...

Phyllodes tumors are rare fibro-epithelial that known to grow very rapidly in a short period. The tumor is for its propensity recur locally despite adequate wide excisions and even mastectomies. This case report of woman who had recurrent peculiar location. tumours generally confined arising from the breast; however, this case, we found it anterior abdominal wall. tumour was removed with 2 cm m...

Introduction: Phyllodes tumors (PTs) of the breast are rare fibro-epithelial tumors, which represent 1% all primary with an incidence 0.3% to 0.9%, and they 2% 3% fibroepithelial neoplasms. Their diagnosis is based on histology. Our work aims determine epidemiological, clinical, histological therapeutic aspects PTs. Materials methods: This a retrospective study conducted in gyneco-obstetric II ...

Phyllodes tumors are rare breast neoplasms. Surgery is the treatment of choice. The role of postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy is still under dispute, as there are no equivocal prognostic factors. Treatment failure results in the occurrence of distant metastasis-mainly to the lungs, bones, liver, and brain. We have described the case of a woman with a malignant phyllodes tumor of the b...

  Ependymomas accounts for about 2%–6% of CNS and 60%–70% of spinal cord tumors. Several histological patterns of these neoplasms are well known, but little attention has been devoted to a variant composed of giant cells. In spite of apparently “worrisome” histology, giant cell ependymoma seems to be a neoplasm with a relatively good prognosis. This report presents a case of giant cell ependym...

INTRODUCTION Phyllodes tumors of breast are rare and usually benign. These are histologically fibro-epithelial tumors similar to fibroadenomas. Histological confirmation on the operative specimen is required to establish the diagnosis and histological pronostic of phyllode tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 8 cases of phyllodes tumors and the literature to report the circumstances of o...

Mammary sarcomas are uncommon tumors. Of these pure chondrosarcoma without any other area of epithelial or mesenchymal differentiation feature as even rarer. This excludes tumors like malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes and metaplastic carcinoma where malignant cartilaginous areas may be present. Further primary chondrosarcoma arises from breast stroma and not from underlying bone or cartilage. On...
