Abstract

Phylloides tumours are uncommon biphasic lesions of breast that are further classified as benign, borderline & malignant. Malignant phylloides tumours must be distinguished from spindle cell carcinoma and primary breast sarcoma. Demonstration of benign epithelial component will help to establish the diagnosis of malignant phylloides, but this may require extensive sampling is some cases. The present case was diagnosed after extensive sampling.
