==Overview==
 
'''Phyllodes tumors''' (from [[Greek language|Greek]]: ''phullon'' leaf), also '''cystosarcoma phyllodes''', '''cystosarcoma phylloides''' and '''phylloides tumor''', are typically large, fast growing masses that form from the periductal [[stroma]] of the [[breast]]. They account for less than 1% of all breast [[Neoplasia|neoplasms]].
 
Phyllodes tumors are a [[fibroepithelial tumor]] composed of an epithelial and a cellular stromal component. They may be considered [[benign]], borderline, or [[malignant]] depending on histologic features including stromal cellularity, infiltration at the tumor's edge, and [[mitoses|mitotic activity]].
 
This is predominantly a tumor of adult women, with very few examples reported in adolescents. Occurrence is most common between the ages of 40 and 50, prior to the [[menopause]]. This is about 15 years older than the typical age of patients with [[fibroadenoma]], a condition with which Phyllodes tumors may be confused.
 
The common treatment for phyllodes is [[wide local excision]]. Most patients are cured with [[surgery]]; the risk of developing local recurrence or [[metastasis|metastases]] is related to the  histologic grade, according to the above-named features.
 
==Spectrum==
Phyllodes tumors are considered to be on a spectrum of disease<ref>{{cite journal |author=Deen SA, McKee GT, Kissin MW |title=Differential cytologic features of fibroepithelial lesions of the breast |journal=Diagn. Cytopathol. |volume=20 |issue=2 |pages=53-6 |year=1999 |pmid=9951596 |doi=}}</ref> that consists of [[fibroadenoma]], fibroadenoma variant and benign phyllodes.  Some would extend the spectrum to include malignant phyllodes tumors and frank [[sarcoma]].
