Breast carcinoma originating in cystosarcoma phyllodes.
Only three cases of carcinoma infiltrating the stroma of cystosarcoma phyllodes have been reported. An additional case is presented. Unlike the treatment of cystosarcoma phyllodes which is limited to complete removal of the tumor, carcinosarcomas should be treated in the same manner as carcinoma by mastectomy and axillary dissection.
