This case report details a rare malignant phyllodes tumor in a 45-year-old female. Despite initial treatment, local relapse and distant metastases occurred, highlighting the need for aggressive management.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Malignant phyllodes tumors are rare breast neoplasms with a potential for aggressive behavior.
  • Accurate histological diagnosis is crucial for determining prognosis and guiding treatment.

Observation:

  • A 45-year-old female presented with a malignant phyllodes tumor of the breast.
  • Local relapse occurred 20 months post-mastectomy, initially misdiagnosed as benign fibroadenoma.
  • Distant metastases to the pleural diaphragm appeared 69 months postoperatively, resembling mesothelioma.

Findings:

  • Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels aided in detecting metastases and monitoring disease progression.
  • The histological discrepancy between the primary tumor and relapse underscores diagnostic challenges.
  • Metastatic presentation mimicked mesothelioma, complicating diagnosis and treatment planning.

Implications:

  • The high rate of local recurrence suggests the need for adjuvant therapies.
  • Postoperative irradiation of the chest wall is proposed to reduce local relapse risk.
  • This case emphasizes the importance of vigilant follow-up and considering rare differentials in breast cancer recurrence.
