These tumors are fast growing masses arising from the periductal stromal cells of the breast. We report a case of phyllodes in a 25 year old primigravida who presented to us at 18 weeks of pregnancy with mass of right breast which appeared 15 days back. She gave history of some mass in right breast for which she was operated 1 year back for which no details or papers were available. On examination there was a tumor in Right breast of about 20x15x11 cm size.ANC examination showed uterus of 18 wks size, FHS 140/min, regular. Patient underwent FNAC and biopsy from the mass which was suggestive of malignant Phyllodes tumor. Patient was prepared for mastectomy and along with surgical team right mastectomy with right axillary lymph node dissection was done. Post-operative period was uneventful. Histopathological examination showed increased cellularity and nuclear atypia suggestive of malignant phyllodes tumour and lymph nodes were negative. We concluded that accurate preoperative pathological diagnosis is very important for management of phyllodes tumor, and allows correct surgical planning and avoidance of reoperation. ER -
