[Pathogenesis, clinical aspects, morphology, therapy and prognosis of phyllodes tumors of the breast].
A case is reported of a malignant cystosarcoma phylloides. After 7-year-follow-up period an increase in size was observed in a mammary nodule, first suspected diagnostic ascertainment. Histology of the removed tumor with an unsuspicious tissue sheath revealed a malignant cystosarcoma. Consequently, any palpable breast node suspected to be fibroadenoma should be removed with short-spaced follow-up examination or at least observed over long periods of time in view of the possible malignant degeneration despite of absent criteria of malignancy.
