ABSTRACT

Phyllodes tumor is described to a small portion of primary tumors of the breast. We report a case of a 64-year-old woman presenting with a lump in the left breast progressive over 4 years reaching her waist level. Core needle biopsy was opined as spindle cell lesion, and subsequent mastectomy confirmed the diagnosis of benign phyllodes tumor. This case is presented for its huge size. To the best of our knowledge this is the largest size it’s been reported in the literature.

Keywords: benign phyllodes tumor, stromal proliferation
