Abstract
CORSO, Diego et al. Phyllodes tumour. State of the art. rev.colomb.cancerol. [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.2, pp.79-86. ISSN 0123-9015. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rccan.2015.10.001.
Phyllodes tumour is a fibroepithelial neoplasm of the breast, with a low world incidence, and with few prospective trials on its diagnosis and treatment. A review is presented of the available world medical literature on this topic. Phyllodes tumours can currently be classified as benign, borderline and malign. This classification helps to determine the surgical treatment, which is the cornerstone of the treatment of Phyllodes tumour, as well as the adjuvant treatment, and finally it helps to determine the patient's prognosis.
