title: [Phylloides tumors of the breast. A rare disease picture with a predominantly favorable prognosis].
abstract: The phyllodes tumours, a group of rare (0.3%) neoplasms of the breast, consisting predominantly of mesenchymal tissue, are presented by an own case. A certain distinction between benign and malignant types can not always be obtained. The tumours are characterized by a high rate of local recurrences, but their prognosis is better than that of breast carcinomas, even in case of malignity. Metastasizing tumours mostly spread by an hematogenic pathway. The therapeutic access is surgical by complete local excision with a margin of security. Other oncological therapies failed to be successful.
